Printing Graphs
Before printing a graph you should set the page size and orientation using the Page Setup dialog. Choose
Page Setup from the Files menu. Often graphs are wider than they are tall and look better when printed
using the horizontal orientation.
When you invoke the Page Setup dialog you must make sure that the graph that you want to print is the
top window. Igor stores one page setup in each experiment for all graphs and stores other page setups for
other types of windows. You can set the default graph page setup for new experiments using the Capture
Graph Preferences dialog.
To print a graph, choose Print from the File menu while the graph is the active window. This brings up the
Print dialog. In addition to the standard items, the Print dialog contains items which allow you to control
how the graph is scaled and positioned within the printed page.
If you enable the Fill Page radio button, Igor fills the printed page with the graph, changing the aspect ratio
of the graph as necessary.
If you enable the Same Size radio button (the default), Igor sets the size of the printed graph equal to its size
on the screen. If you have constrained the size of the graph, using the Modify Graph dialog, then you nor-
mally should use the Same Size setting.
If you enable the Same Aspect radio button, Igor makes the graph as large as possible so that it fits on the
printed page and retains the aspect ratio of the graph on the screen.
If you enable the Custom Size radio button, Igor positions and sizes the graph according to the margins and
dimensions that you enter in the Graph Margin and Graph Size parameter boxes.
