Changing orientation of page setup to plot

[Anonymous]

Hi

We're experiencing some problems with the page edit and plotting.

I've setup that the DIN A3 pages need to be in landscape in the Page Setup Manager.

After assigning it to a layout, it forgets everything I need to plot an A3 in landscape. 

Workflow : 

Page Setup assigned to the layout.

Settings of the Page Setup : A3 landscape

When it's time to print, the mac gives me the standard A4 and in Portrait

Hope somebody can clear this out, because we are wasting a lot of paper...

Hi,

Very strange. Looking at your screenshots I see that everything seems to be correct.
Does this happens with all of your drawings?
Do you use Custom paper size or one of the predefined from printer?

Hi

I use the custom paper sizes. It’s weird because it works fine when I use the A0 settings.
It uses an other printer though...

Try to delete this problem custom paper size and recreate it again.

Hi

Found it, I think.

To print to our A3 printer, we need to enter a authorisation number. I've made a printing preset, with the number already filled in.

But it also uses the A4 paper size as standard. 

Then when I want to print, it seams that this settings overrules the other. When I print with the default setting, my page setup (A3 landscape) works fine!
