Printed output in other paper sizes?

As far as I can tell, the only possible output for Hero Lab sheets is US Letter size. This is pretty useless for us that are outside of the Americas as pretty much the only accessible paper sizes are in the AX variant.

Is there any way to get HL to render the sheets with A4/A5 dimensions, instead of wasting huge amounts of space converting the US Letter output to A4/A5 at printing time?

Make sure you're using the latest released version of Hero Lab (at least version 7.1). Starting with that release, Hero Lab will obey the paper size setting you set in your printer preferences - so if you set your printer to print at A4-size, Hero Lab will print everything sized for A4.

I don't believe we support printing in other sizes (A3/A5 etc) as they would need significantly different layouts to look good.

Hope this helps!
 
Well, that would explain why my WOD sheets are now all misaligned with the overlay numbers in the health boxes when I print from one computer rather than the other.

Disappointing that other paper sizes aren't supported, but that could be worked around by landscape vs portrait printing. I don't see any obvious mechanism for producing landscape sheets either though.

You could design your own layout :-)

It always a matter of time with HL: anything can be done but it will take time, and will enough people want the feature to make it worthwhile.
 
Yeah, I don't have a problem with designing a landscape layout but it won't matter if HL won't render them in Landscape and the landscape layout gets smooshed to portrait.
