print a window

Fredevans
Hello Chaps.
I would like to draw a window around a section of my drawing and then print just the contents of the window.
Is this possible?
thanks

many regards from South africa

No, it is not possible this way.
What you can do, for instance, if you have a drawing made for A1 format, print a part of it on an A4 sheet.
In Print Preview you can shift around the sheet to the desired position.
But if you export to pdf there is this issue:https://forum.librecad.org/PDF-File-Size-management-tp5722455.html
The only other way I can think of is to draw a mask of nearly white filling (solid hatch, and white would appear black) with a rectangular opening.

Many thanks
