Description j.echter 2023-09-07 14:08:47 UTC

SUMMARY
***
When i try to print photos on my printer i get asked on which printer, it always defaults to pdf, so i select my printer and set the page size 4x6" borderless in my case. The preview still shows a A4 page, which is default. When i got back to the page settings it still says A4 as selected.

When i print the picture i have a picture on half of the photo paper and it still has borders.
***

1. select PrintCreator
2. Set up your page size
3. print

OBSERVED RESULT

picture is still printed as it where on a A4 page

picture is borderless on my 4"x6" photo paper

Under Windows print directly to PDF is not a native format, in opposite to Linux and MacOS.
A specific PDF generator must be installed under Windows as a virtual printer driver.
PDF is now not available as output format under Windows.
