When you change the tree while this window stays open ( eg. zoom in/out ...) press to update graphic size Magnification: guess what Paper Size: X * Y inches Popular paper sizes in portrait mode (in inch): A4 8.27 * 11.69 A3 11.69 * 16.54 Letter 8 * 11.5 You have to specify the size w/o the border used on your system. For A4 7.5*10.5 is a value working for us - use preview to figure out values fitting your configuration. Orientation: Landscape or Portrait mode Pages: X * Y Number of resulting pages 0.7 2.3 means 1*3 == 3 pages If you modify the X/Y page field, magnification will be adjusted to fit the graphic into the number of pages. Fit to pages: Tests how to fit the printout best onto a given number of pages (sets 'Orientation' and 'Magnification') Destination: Printer: Use print command to print File: Use File Name as destination file name Preview: Print to file and show using gv (ghostview) Overlap: If checked, the printed pages will "slightly" overlap. Note: ARB cannot influence the size of the overlap-region (this seems to be hardcoded in fig2dev), so you may have to change the default to the size used on your system. NOTES The default printer used by ARB can be defined by setting the environment variable PRINTER to your printer name. To change the proportion between font- and graphic-size you have to change the physical zoom factor (of the radial tree/secondary structure). EXAMPLES Print a long list tree: 1. Select tree style in ARB_NT main window 2. Select File/Print tree 3. Select Destination 'Printer' 4. Press PRINT button WARNINGS Printing cannot be stopped BUGS None
