Windows 10
QCAD Pro 3.27.6.0(3.27.6)
Over many QCAD versions and many projects, I have tried to use the Autofit Drawing to Paper feature and it never works. This has been the case for printing to 8.5x11 and my large format printer at 24". It also doesn't work when the drawing units are imperial or metric.
I'm sure I am doing something wrong, because no one else seems to have this issue. I never have taken the time to ask, just manually resized. It's getting a little annoying, so now I'm asking.
I've attached a screenshot showing the results that I get. The QCAD project file is attached, too. It's a house we're building.
I'm printing to a 24" Epson with rolled paper. I'm manually setting the paper length to 10", which should be proportional to the 24" width for this drawing.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Hi,
please try to set the Glue Margins to the Printer Margins. (Set to Printer Margins). Most likely something close to 0 will come out of that. Then test it again ...

Well, that was incredibly easy. I really should have asked sooner.
Thanks Husky!
