To extend the list of pre-defined paper layouts, the program allows to create custom layouts. Custom layouts can be used to:
Printing a custom paper layout does not differ from using pre-defined one.
Apart from using custom paper layouts, it is possible to add elements directly onto plain paper from the Print dialog. This method is simpler, but not so flexible. You cannot save a layout compiled in the Print dialog for later use, unlike a custom layout.
Open the paper selection dialog by clicking the Change Paper button on the Design Element tab of Inspector. Then move to the Custom tab, select a layout from the list and click the Edit button.
The Paper/Tray Size section allows to edit the layout's name, choose one of the standard paper formats or set your own one.
If your layout is intended for printing on discs, set the Direct printing option.
The Design Element Source box is a library of elements.
Initially the library contains pre-defined design elements. After creating custom elements, they are shown at the bottom of the library, under the separator.
To add, delete and edit custom design elements, click the Manage Custom Elements button.
To add a new element to custom paper, drag it from the library to the paper preview on the right.
To change the element's location, drag it with the mouse.
Alternatively, select the element in the preview and set its position in the Selected Element section.
To change the element's orientation, use the Rotate button.
To remove the selected element, click Remove or press the Delete key.
Although the developer adds new layouts to the list of pre-defined paper, you may have paper that still is not listed. If you have managed to create a layout for your paper and successfully printed on it, you can share it with the developer. This will speed up adding new paper to the list.
The Send layout to developer button composes an e-mail with all necessary layout dimensions and opens it in your mail program.
The Print Outlines button allows printing your own layout. Use this feature to check dimensions of the created paper layout or for other purposes.
