Change Default Print Settings

[Mike Rice]

Every time I print a  document from Nirto PDF, the Page Scaling needs to be changed to "Shrink to fit printable area".  Is there a way to set this as the default setting?

Hello @Mike Rice,

Thank you for posting on our Community Forums!

Once you have selected it, that option should stay enabled during the same printing session, until you disable it again, or close Nitro out and start a new print session.

If that is not working for you, can you please let us know what exact build of Nitro you are running? This can be found by opening Nitro > Help > About Nitro Pro. It will look something like 11.x.x.x

Thanks!

I, too, find this to be a major inconvenience of Nitro Pro. Will it be changed any time soon, to make automatic scaling (Fit to Page) a 'sticky' (savable) global selectable preference as opposed to a preference that has to be set for every print job as at present?

I have Nitro Pro v11.0.6.326, installed and managed by our corporate IT.

Hello @Gerard Lardner,

Thank you for reaching out to us through our Community Forums!

I believe this has been fixed in 11.0.8.470 so please provide me your Nitro Pro 11 serial number. From there I can send you the updated installers.

To send it via private message, hover your mouse on top of my name 'AllainU' and select 'Message'.

This matters because our business installers are different from the online ones.

Thank you very much in advance and I am looking forward to hearing back from you.
