Printing a Drawing to Fit on a Page
Fitted output is useful anytime you need the largest image possible rather
than one printed at a specific scale. You cannot scale from fitted output.
However, AutoSketch provides the ability to automatically set the scale as a
compromise between fitted and scaled output. For information on setting
the scale automatically, see
