Sizing a job by length
You can make the job longer or shorter to fit space requirements by changing the length of a job
without altering the height. Since you are not changing the size proportionally, however, the
appearance of the job will change.
In Forced Length, you alter a job by an exact measurement, or by a percentage of the original
length. An unaltered job has a value of 100%. Forced Length accepts percentage values between
1 and 999. Enter a value between 1 and 99 to compress an image. Enter a value between 101 and
999 to expand a job beyond its original length.
Forced length is unavailable if the job has an image, small text, or dimension objects.
Note: Using Forced Length compresses or expands the job, and alters its appearance.
Depending on your application, the resulting distortion may be unacceptable.

Choosing specific layers, vinyls, or foils to be output
Choose to output specific layers, vinyls, or foils of a job using the Select Colors dialog box.
Layers, vinyls, and foils to be processed are indicated by a check mark in the black box
preceding them. Clear the check box to prevent a layer, vinyl, or foil from outputting. If you
turn off a layer, all vinyl and foil on the layer are also deselected. Turning off a printed vinyl
turns off all the foils to be printed on it.
If the job has layers and the Output by Layers option is turned on in GSPPlot, the Select Colors
dialog box displays each layer separately with the vinyls and foil colors indented beneath it.
Because each layer behaves as a separate job when outputting by layers, the same vinyl color
can be output multiple time from different layers. Likewise, the same foil can be output from
different layers.
