what's the priority and target for this one? are we still planning to get this in for MachV?

We are not going to have "fit to page" in MachV. We will support the "print scaling" capability so the user can change the scaling to achieve fitting the output to whatever number of pages they desire. Resetting target milestone and removing some blockers.

Is this bug really assigned to anyone?
Comment 19•21 years ago
|
||
no, shall i assign it to you?
Fit to Page was implemented in bug 100967 about two years ago. Is this bug actually tracking anything at this point?

I had once requested (bug 224493) an option to fit the *LENGTH* of the document, not the *WIDTH* of the document, to a fixed number of pages. My bug was supposed to be rolled into this one, which reads about the same. Again, the request is to fit the *length* of the document to a fixed amount of pages. You can do this by repeatedly changing the scaling and previewing the document until it comes out right, but this takes a *long* time, and sometimes print-preview doesn't work. Fitting the width of the document is not the same thing.

Please look at the options available for printing from OpenOffice: one option is to scale from the default size (which mozilla does), while another is to select the number of pages to expand or compress the document to. FireFox has a lot of advanced features like tabbing (which I'm told will show up in the new version of Internet Explorer), and it's ironic that this usefule print feature got lost after Netscape 4....

This request has been hanging around to 10 years now. At most, I see some confusion about fitting the printed page to the paper width, which is supported already, versus fitting to a fixed number of pages, which is the issue here. Again, OpenOffice is a good example of how to do this. Also the old Netscape browser was able to do this.
