everything try again and same thing. Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks!

Below is what I do for small diagrams that I want to print on one
page. I have not explored the possibility of multi-page printing.

1) Expand view up to 200%.

2) Use the feature to copy the diagram to the clipboard.

3) Open Irfanview (a popular and free tool) and paste to a new image.

4) Print from Irfanview. There are quite a few options for scaling
and such but the only one I have tried is Best fit to page (aspect
ratio) for small diagrams.

You can also save it as a jpeg from Irfanview.

For what that is worth.
