Hi Folks,

Has anyone noticed when you do a imposition that X3 shrinks the images when the page is full.

For instance if you have single image that is 2.000 inches square when you go to print preview and invoke the imposition tool and put 6 copies horizontally on a page that is 12.000 inches wide it will shrink them slightly to fit the page

If you click the button to maintain the original image size it will cutoff the edges of the 1st and last images.

I checked on edit gutters and finishing and the value is zero.

Any ideas ?

Thanks, Dean

Check Print/Layout/Edit/Edit Margins. Make sure "Auto Margins" is unselected.

Hi Bill,

I have tried that but it does not fix the problem.

I am beginning to wonder if this is a problem with the epilog radius driver software.

Duh, it appears it may be a problem with the epilog radius driver software, I just tried a different printer with zero margins and could print copies to the very edge of the page with no reduction in size.

Giving Epilog a call, will see what they say

Thanks, Dean

Talked to Epilog yesterday, not much help, little chance of fixing a driver problem on a 9 year old machine.

On the bright side I found all you have to do is increase the paper width slightly and it will print them the correct size.
