Select PaperSize Translator Addin export PDF

Hello,

I'm using the PDF Translator AddIn via the API to export drawings to PDF. As I've checked, the translator AddIn exports to PDF in the paper size used in the drawing. I mean, if the paper size of the drawing is A3, the paper size of the PDF will be A3 as well.

I need export all drawings in A4, although the paper size of the drawing is A3.

 

Is it possible to set this option using Translator AddIn?, or should I use a drawing print manager instead?

 

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Vanesa

As far as the PDF translator add-in, I don't believe it has an option defined within it that you can set that will transform the paper size from original to another size.  I know the DrawingPrintManager does though, so maybe you could use a 'print to PDF' type software printer scenario that will do what you need.  Although, you likely won't be able to directly control/manipulate that software printer's settings from the code itself, so you may have to just set those manually first, then hopefully it will maintain its settings.
