Depending on your operating system, do one of the following:

Change the default print setting
You can save print settings with the application, so that new InCopy documents use the same print settings. In Mac OS,
these print settings also become the default for the printer. You can override individual print settings.
1
Choose File > Print, and adjust the default print settings as desired.
2
Click Save Settings.
Any subsequent overrides to these saved settings are discarded at the completion of the print job.
Scale documents
When you print from Layout view, you can control how your document pages fit on the chosen paper size by scaling.
The maximum page size you can print from a Windows system is 129 by 129 inches. To fit an oversized document on
a smaller piece of paper, you can scale the document width and height either symmetrically or asymmetrically. You can
also automatically scale the pages to fit the imageable area of the current paper size. Scaling does not affect the size of
the pages in the document.
Scale a document manually
1
In Layout view, choose File > Print.
2
To maintain the current document proportions of width to height, select Constrain Proportions. To scale the
document asymmetrically, make sure this option is deselected.
3
Type percentages from 1 to 1000 in the Width and Height boxes. If you selected Constrain Proportions, you need to
enter only one value; the other is updated automatically.
4
Click Print.
Scale a document automatically
1
In Layout view, choose File > Print.
2
Select Scale To Fit. The scaling percentage, which is determined by the imageable area defined by the selected PPD,
appears next to the Scale To Fit option.

Click Print.
