Scale is set to "Fit to Page" Which it does.  However (Depending on the drawing) it either top or Left justifys the entire drawing. Is there a way to center justify (Vertically and/or horizontially) on the page?

You can use the Page Setup dialog to set left, right, top and bottom margins.  Note that the measurement unit for margins is Millimeters.

I hope this is helpful.

Great, but those settings reset to "0" every time you open or close a file. So if you need to re-print something, you need to remeber all of the print settings? Kind of a pain!

Hi Al,

You are quite correct - Page Setup settings are stored in the application rather than with each document, and while this is something we plan on changing in the future, it's a feature that we must ask you to live with for the time being.

My page set-up dialog has "In" next to the boxes where you enter the margins. Changing the magins seems to have no effect. Is it really in inches or millimeters as stated above, or am I doing something wrong?

If I repeatedly go back and change "Fit to page" to something else, set and clear print area , etc... it will eventually have the desired effect. Seemingly no rhyme or reason to the order in which I do this....

It is in Millimeters as stated, and 1 inch = 25.4mm.  Put in 25.4 as your left margin and you will get a 1 inch margin on the left, regardless of the unit shown in the dialog. (Note: this bug regarding display units has been noted and should be fixed soon)

I hope this is helpful
