printing

Hi,

some printing related issues / questions. I run version 4.3.0 on Windows

and Mac.

1) When printing to a file from user created menu, there is no way for a

file name to contain spaces. In script it can be done by embracing the

file name with single quotes (e.g. PRINT FILE ... 'filename with

spaces.pdf'), but when used within the menu button it produces an error.

2) When printing from board, origins are not printed, even if they are

displayed and visible on the screen. This worked fine in 6.2.

The following script for example prints no origins:

DISPLAY NONE 20 21 23 51;

PRINT 1 -1 -CAPTION -MIRROR ROTATE BLACK SOLID FILE '%N - top origins.pdf';

3) Sheet orientation is not displayed correctly in print preview (Mac

only, schematic & board):

4) The printout is also not correct - it's not the way the options are

set nor how the preview above shows it (Mac only, schematic & board):

5) Not related with printing, but I already posted an issue with non

working key assignments with Alt (Option) key on Mac. I got no answer -

I would really appreciate if somebody would just give me a hint if I'm

doing something wrong or should I go redefine (and re-learn) all my key

assignments...

Thanks.
