| · | In the "Types" area you can select what kind of items you wish to appear in the output. This allows you to hide comments as well as processing instructions or DTD items. For an explanation of the item types, please refer to the XML specification.
|
| · | In the "What" area you can choose to print the entire file or just the current selection.
|
| · | In the "Expand" area you can elect to print the document as it has been expanded on the screen, or to print the entire document with all child elements expanded fully.
|
| · | In the "Contents" area you can decide to print the contents of all elements in a document, or you may also print only those elements that form the hierarchical "tree" structure of the document. This should, however, not be confused with the tree view on the left side of each document window, wich is only used as a navigation aide on the screen and cannot be printed.
|
| · | In the "If contents is wider than page" area you can decide what to do if the document is larger than one page of paper.
|
| · | The "Split pages" option will print the entire document in its regular size and split the contents on as many pages (both horizontally and vertically) as are required. These pages can later be glued together to form a huge poster of the document.
|
| · | The "First page" option is especially useful if you believe that your page is only a bit too narrow and that most of the important information is contained on the left side, anyway. This will result in a printed output that is split into pages vertically (as necessary), but will only print the first page horizontally so that the document is printed as one huge vertical strip.
|
| · | The "Shrink horizontally" option reduces the size of the printed output, until it fits on one page horizontally. The output may, however, still span several pages vertically and is split accordingly.
|
| · | The "Shrink both" option shrinks the document in both directions until it fits exactly on one sheet, thus making it useful for overviews.
|
| · | The "Print" button prints the document with the selected options.
|
| · | The "Preview" button opens a print preview window that lets you view the final output before committing it to paper.
|
| · | The "Print Setup" button opens the "Print Setup" dialog and allows you to adjust the paper format, orientation, and other printer options for this print job only.
