I would like to know how to make my drawing appear in the centre of paper. Taking a simple rectangle as an example I draw it centre but it always shows way off centre in print preview.
Help lease. Mike.

Re: Printing
Hi,
Please read the Printing Tutorial.
Perhaps also have a look at the Video Tutorials
In short, acknowledge the popup dialog when initiating a Print preview.
Or in Print preview mode locate the buttons 'Auto fit drawing to pages' ... 'Auto Center' on the Options Toolbar.
This Toolbar is usually situated left and just above the drawing panel.
Most tools share this Toolbar to display their options.
Regards,
CVH

Re: Printing
Thank you for the replies. I will have to take it steady and work through the tutorials gently.
Quite a bit there for an old chap to take in.
I apologise for not stating my OS and QCAD versions. Jumped in too quickly.

Re: Printing
I have followed the video tutorial and can now print my drawings. No doubt there is more to learn on that subject but will no doubt pick it up when needed or ask. Thank you for help and putting me on to the videos. They are very
helpful.
