Sudoku Help - Print Options

Here's a page from the extensive help system for SudokuDragon. It is displayed as a help screen when running the program. To get the full picture Download our Sudoku Dragon and see the screen in its full context.

When you print out a puzzle you may want to control what information will be generated on the paper. You may not want the grid to be printed exactly as it is on the screen.

The print process will use the same font and colour allocations you have selected for the grid.

The print options give four choices: the display style for the print-out; the size of the printed grid; whether you want to print the information about possibilities for unallocated squares and whether you want the list of square allocations made so far. These options will be remembered for the next time you print and are kept separately to the options for viewing the grid.

You can choose the size of the grid on the printed page, this is expressed as the percentage of the available print area. In portrait page print mode 100% would give the puzzle grid the full printable paper width. The printed text remains the same size.

You can choose to use the same display theme for the grid on the print-out as on the screen, or you can choose a different one by just selecting it from the list. If you select a different display theme from the drop down list 'the different theme option will be automatically selected.

Use the Print Preview command on the File menu to see how the Sudoku puzzle will be printed out. You can use Print setup on the File menu to control the operation of the printer and change things like the paper orientation.
