PT9 Score printing problem

[AudioAmigo]

I'm so excited to finally have the ability to print out charts, but I can't seem to print Score properly. Each print has this huge 3 inch margin at the top, then the chart gets cut off at the bottom.

I have tried setting my top margin to 0. Doesn't help. Can't seem to get a whole page printed on a whole piece of paper. Printer is networked on home wireless system. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Eddie

Can you "print" to a PDF? Then print that?

Thanks, dearon80. That's a little better, but it still leaves a large margin at the top and cuts off the last staff on the page. Still not acceptable results. Any other suggestions?

I'll answer my own question for future reference.

It is important to make sure the default paper size/page size is set correctly in all three of these places:

- PT Score Setup dialog
- Mac OS print preferences dialog
- your printer's paper allocation dialog.

In my case I was printing to US Letter paper (11 x 8.5") but PT was trying to format the page in US Legal (14 x 8.5")

Setting all these preferences in advance is the only way to avoid printing weirdness.

Thanks again!
