![]() I must not understand something about this. I do not know how to install a roll plotter driver in linux without having the plotter attached to the computer. It seems like Sweethome uses one of the existing printer drivers on the user's computer to control a plot.I only have a letter size page printer. Thank you for the cod, it really helped with the issue I had. I think this would add a lot of value to this program, for people using it to design homes who want an accurate scaled PDF. That boolean property would be put into the HomePrint object, then if that's set to true, skip the call to "printerJob.validatePage(pageFormat)" later on. Then we could add an additional checkbox, "Force override (if override doesn't work". In the PageSetupPanel, we could have an option "Override page width/height/margins". I think it would make a ton of sense to add a few input elements here to allow end users to do this. Download the source code, make these changes, built it according to README.TXT, and profit. Here's the "poor man's" gist if anyone wants it. ![]() After doing that, I have a lovely PDF in the exact size I need. Then in HomePrintableComponent, I had to comment out the call to "printerJob.validatePage(pageFormat)". I had to modify PageSetupPanel.updateController() and hardcode the desired width, height, and margins I want for the values being passed into HomePrint. I found that I can make some code tweaks locally and get the desired PDF I want. That got something pretty close, but it's maybe 1 percent off after printing on the large-scale printer at Kinko's. One thing that mostly worked is the "Export to SVG" option, plus careful measuring and manual tweaking in GIMP. I also tried gabeblack's suggestion above. I've tried across my Windows, Ubuntu, and Mac system, and none of those are letting me set a custom page size for PDF export. I've been desperately trying to get a scaled PDF in a large size.
