Re: [Inkscape-user] Printing 8.5" x 22"

That depends on your printer driver. Since you cannot see it there, then your driver probably has another way of handling non-standard page sizes.
When I click on print, the Print box opens. The Preview shows only 8.5 > x 11 inches, NOT the entire 24 inches. If I click on "Choose Paper > Source by PDF paper size", I get a 14 inch preview. 14 inches is the > max. I have ever gotten.

It is this darkened section that does not print. If > I could only get that remaining 13 inches highlighted, I guess the > entire thing will print (right assumption?). From this I can conclude that your printer will print in a Letter page (11 inches is its longest dimension). So please ignore the previous wild guesses, it seems that you must do something in the print dialogue. Most probably, under the "Properties" of the printer inside "Advanced". Your assumption is correct, whenever you manage to have the whole thing highlighted you you print it all.
You must play with your printer settings (File\Print...\Properties and File\Print...\Properties\Advanced). If I were you, I would check the print properties in the applications that do print correctly, this way you could maybe get the hint of what is incorrectly set in the printing from Acrobat Reader.
How did you manage to get 14 inches highlighted? Did you try Portrait? Did you try checking all your options in "File\Print...\Properties" under the "Layout" tab? Did you try checking all your options in "File\Print...\Properties\Advanced" under "Page/Output"? Keep playing with the print settings, I really believe that your solution is there.
Wild guess: make sure you are trying to print in the same printer from Acrobat Reader as from the other applications that get it printed right. _________________________________________________________________ Get the new Windows Live Messenger! http://get.live.com/messenger/overview
Newbie. This sounds like a simple question, but I haven't found an answer in the forum archives. Probably poor search skills.
How can I change the size of an arrowhead on a line?

Generally, Inkscape existing arrows are provides in three formats : Large, Medium and Small. If you want another size, you should edit the svg file to add a new marker scaled. You can play too with the scale factor to resize your line : marker will grow in the same time.

Isn't there supposed to be a feature to render LaTeX? Under Effects>Render? Or have I misinterpreted something? (I can't find the feature on Windows version 0.44.1)
thanks, gary
I'm trying to draw some simple illustrations of vectors. I'd like to label the vectors with a subscripted letter with an arrow over it. Is there some way to do this other than by brute force? I can't find 1) how to do subscripts 2) any simple way to do the arrow other than drawing one above the letter. Perhaps Inkscape is not suited to this task.
I'd like to use $\vec(A)_x$, but LaTeX formula rendering doesn't seem to be available in my version. (See my earlier post from today.)
Thanks, gary
In the meantime, it's back to xfig ...

There is a LaTeX formula extension under Effects>Render on Linux, is that what you're thinking? I've never used it though.

I guess so. It's not there in the Windows version.

The size of markers is proportional to the stroke width. Unfortunately we don't yet have an UI for scaling markers independently of stroke width (though this is planned). If you really badly need it, you can achieve this by manual editing of SVG.
