Printing options This section describes the primary options you can use for printing documents on desktop printers. Printing multiple scaled pages In the Thumbnails pop-up menu, you can select an option to print multiple document pages on each printer page. Choose 1/Page to print a document at actual size, with one document page on each printer page. If the document is larger than the printer paper, the document will not be scaled; you can select the Tile option to print the document on multiple sheets of paper. To scale and print multiple document pages on each printer page, choose an option to set the number of document pages to print. The document pages will be scaled as necessary to fit the printer pages. The amount of scaling depends on the size of the document pages and the size of the printer pages. For example, if you want to print six document pages as thumbnail images on a printer page, choose 6/Page. Collate Copies Prints all pages of the document in order based on the number of copies requested, rather than printing all copies of page 1, all copies of page 2, and so on. Tip You can also access the Print Preview function from the Print dialog box. Press the Preview button (Mac) or Print Preview button (Windows). Tip On Mac OS X, open the options menu to view and change the print settings.
