To cancel printing s Press ESC. Understanding Page Tiling If you create a drawing that is larger than a single printer page, AutoSketch automatically tiles it across multiple pages. This gives you the flexibility to generate large output on any printer. AutoSketch prints tick marks to indicate the margins on tiled output. Before connecting the printed pages together, you must first cut away the margin area indicated by the tick marks. For example, let's assume you have created a drawing using an 11'' x 17'' page with a landscape orientation. However, your printer only supports 8.5'' x 11'' pages. In addition, you discover that there is a .25'' wide margin at all sides of the printer page that the printer can't print on. This means that you only have an active printing area of 8'' x 10.5''. Fortunately, AutoSketch can print this drawing using four printer pages tiled together. When you print the drawing, four pages emerge from your printer. Tick marks at the corners indicate the printable area and margins for each printer page. These serve as a guide for splicing the pages together. Understanding Page Tiling | 77
