Hi all, just joined LibreCAD so I'm not only a complete newbie to this forum, but also CAD drawing. My head's getting a bit sore from banging it on the wall, so can anybody help me please with a print sizing issue. I've drawn a border & title block & when I try to print it in A4 it's all undersize. For instance, the height's drawn at 200mm but the printout only measures 185mm. The scale in Currrent Drawing Preferences is set at 1, but as I'm unfamiliar with & don't completely understand the various settings, I'm not even sure if the scale is relevant in this case. I did read a few posts that said there was an incompatibility with Windows 10 Pro 64 bit operating systems sometimes. I've also tried printing while the print preview window is open, but to no avail. My system details are:
Version: 2.1.3
Compiler: GNU GCC 4.9.1
Compiled on: Sep 23 2016
Qt Version: 5.4.1
Boost Version: 1.60.0
System: Windows
Windows 10 Pro x64
HP Photosmart 7760 printer
Any suggestions on possible fixes or workarounds, & also any links to videos or informative sites on LibreCAD would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
