Lay out print jobs


You can lay out a print job by specifying the size, position, and scale. Tiling a print job prints portions of each page on separate sheets of paper that you can assemble into one sheet. You would, for example, tile a print job that is larger than your printer paper.

To specify the size and position of a print job

Back to Top
1 Click File Print.
2 Click the Layout tab.
3 In the Image position and size area, enable one of the following options:
As in document — maintains the image size as it is in the document
Fit to page — sizes and positions the print job to fit to a printed page
Reposition artwork to — lets you reposition the print job by choosing a position from the list box

Enabling the Reposition artwork to option lets you specify size, position, and scale in the corresponding boxes.

You can also choose an imposition layout, such as 2 x 2 (4-up) or 2 x 3 (6-up), from the Imposition layout list box. For more information, see Imposition layouts.
