Printing Banners

[Jan]

I can't get publisher to print a banner on banner paper
without it trying to tile. The banner is not larger than
the banner paper--there is no reason for it to tile. How
can I get it to simply print my banner onto banner paper?

 

[Mary Sauer]

Setup your printer first.

In addition to Mary's advice, if your banner is over 48" long, Publisher
will always attempt to tile it no matter what you do.

Publisher can only print banners 4' long?! According to the settings in my
2003 the largest is 120" - or 10'.

What does '48", 4', 120" and 10'' mean. Can you please quote those in
proper measurements.

 

[Cari \(MS MVP\)]

Unless you are in Canada or the continent of Europe which uses the metric
system, the measurements are perfectly correctly quoted in feet and inches.

Perhaps you might like to do some research on standard measurements.

What is 'feet and inches'?
Can you explain

 

[Cari \(MS MVP\)]

Google for it. Or do you have a reading problem as well?

You can create a longer banner, but Publisher will attempt to print it as
tiles.
The limitation is documented in a KB article, which I can't find at the
moment
You have to use Zoom Smart or some other workaround to print larger.

Are you just another of those poorly educated ignorant people?
Start protesting in the US for human rights.

Epson will allow 44 inches. (11176 cm.)

 

[°°°MS°Publisher°°°]

Mary you have always shown a touch of class and education.

Mary how is your old man?

 

[Mary Sauer]

My old man is okay. His surgery went fine. He has macular degeneration as well as
glaucoma. I am trying to get our 10 year old dog re-trained... No not really.
Thanks for asking, David. I really missed you while you were away.

 

[°°°MS°Publisher°°°]

Mary 44 inches is 1117.6 mm (not cm)
it would be 111.76 cm (divide mm by 10)
or 1.1176 mtrs (divide cm by 100)

As a matter of interest the conversion of 1" = 25.4mm is correct to nine
decimal places.

Cari, ignore it, it's just being facetious. It's on a one-thing (I can't in
all conscience use the term 'man') crusade to obliterate imperial units from
the face of the planet. I still use imperial for some things - you ask me
how tall I am then it's 5' 6", I couldn't tell you what that was in metres
and centimetres (I believe it's about 1m 67) - and I only know my weight in
stones and pounds (no, I'm not telling you how much I weigh!).

Davey, although it doesn't want to admit it, would have been raised in
imperial.

Oh STFU Davey, you know damned well what they mean! I am *NOT* going to
convert just to please the Nazi in you! You are in your mid-60s, you were
raised on imperial. You probably still use it yourself, but don't want to
admit it because you enjoy being factious and obstreperous!

 

[JoAnn Paules]

Isn't a stone about 12½ pounds?

 

[°°°MS°Publisher°°°]

I am nowhere near 60 let alone mid-60's - geeezzz where do you get that
crapiola from.
I don't have an 'Nazi' in me at all, george w bush has it for the whole
world

 

[Mary Sauer]

I was only going by the Epson print dialogue. It only had .cm...
I am too set in my ways to ever change to metric.

 

[JoAnn Paules]

Same here although I did have fun with my (very gullible) dad a few years
back. I went to Niagara Fall, Canada with my parents about 10 or 12 years
ago. Dad noticed the speed limit signs in metric and commented on how his
speedometer had metric measurements. I suggested he switch the clock over to
metric mode. He looked back at me and with as much of a poker face as I
could muster, I told him that metric time has 10 seconds in a minute, 10
minutes in an hour, etc. It lasted about 10 seconds and then I lost it. He
wasn't sure whether I was serious or not. Gosh that was fun!!
