Printing single page, wrong paper size 'A6'

Post by sumatra »

Using PDF-XChange Editor 10.6.0 build 396: If I print the entire document, the paper size as shown in the preview panel is correct, Paper: 'Letter' Landscape (270 CCW).

If I select 'Current View' (a single page), the preview panel shows Paper: 'A6', Landscape (270 CCW), and the image prints at a reduced size on letter paper. This is obviously not correct.

Using the older PDF Xchange Viewer 2.5 Build 332.10, the behaviour is as expected. The paper size in the preview panel correctly shows 'letter' whether printing all pages or current view, and prints correctly on letter paper.

Hello sumatra,

Welcome to the Forum.

When you select 'Current View' as your Page range only what is currently visible in your Editor will be printed.

If that is combined with the option 'Select Paper Size by Document's Page Size' then the paper tray selected will be the smallest one available for your printer ( this may vary depending on the printer's available trays):
