Subject: Plot non-standard size paper

Occasionally I would like to plot a view that is long horizontally but short vertically without using up lots of paper.  I simply want to plot the view using only enough paper to show what I want.  These preliminary plots are for discussion and are almost always going to be different scales and sizes.  Is there an easy way to do this other than setting up a custom paper size through the plotter dialog?

***Same plotters model had an option to crop printed area (save paper or something similar).
Can you find it on the printing preferences page/tabs?


In many of them, after loading a new version of driver, you don't find anymore.

What plotter model are you using? probably we can give you a Third Party Driver which will give you this option, and much more.
