| Orientation |
Portrait or landscape. |
| Print text,
lines and
boxes in
black-and-
white only |
Uncheck this if you want to print in colour. Has no effect
on pictures. |
| Print
background |
Check this if you want Family Historian to print
background details (e.g. generation stripes). |
| Never print
expansion
buttons |
If you want to see expansion buttons when printed, you
must uncheck this option, and ensure that expansion
buttons are enabled in your diagram. |
| User printer
default line
thickness for
thin dotted
lines |
By default, in Windows 2000, Windows XP and later
versions of Windows, Family Historian will ensure that
dotted lines are not less than 0.5 pt in thickness when
printed, as this usually gives better results. Tick this
option if you want to disable this feature.
This option has no effect in Windows 98 or ME.
|
| Dotted Line
Printing |
A dotted line that looks quite satisfactory on one printer
may look less so on another. This option allows you to
experiment with various different ways of printing dotted
lines to get the best results for your printer. Changing this
setting will only affect how dotted lines appear in print. It
will not affect how dotted lines appear in the Diagram
Window. The default setting is “normal”. |
| Print
Margins |
If you want Family Historian to leave margins on the
printed page, these can be set here.
When installed, the Print Margin settings are all zero. |
| Position on
Page (in
diagram
units) |
There is normally no need or reason to change these
values. If you wish to manually adjust the position of a
diagram on the printed page (or across multiple printed
pages) you can do that in other better ways. See for
example the explanation of the Show Page Boundaries
feature on the Diagram Toolbar. |
