Print Graphics

Form: Print Graphics

The File menu > Print Graphics command sends a print of the graphic in the active window to the printer. Clicking this command displays the Print Graphics form, which provides a preview of the graphic as it will be printed.

Use the following five buttons on the Print Graphics form to print, select the printer, set the paper size, add additional images, and add text:

The colors (grayscales) used for black and white printers are those displayed in the Assign Colors form when the Device Type option is set to Printer. The colors used for color printers are those displayed in the Assign Colors form when the Device Type option is set to Color Printer. The colors used for display on the screen are those displayed in the Assign Colors form when the Device Type option is set to Screen. If the object display colors are set differently for screen display and color printing, the objects will print in different colors from those used for on screen display. Check the Show Fill check box in the Contours area for the printed display to have shaded contours.
