Abstract
A computer-implemented graphics program that correctly adapts images being printed to the physical capabilities of a printer. A published virtual paper is scaled to a physical paper, taking into account the virtual paper's size, geometry bounds for an image from the virtual paper being printed, balanced geometry bounds calculated from the geometry bounds, the physical paper's size and a printable area of the physical paper, so that the image being printed fits within a printable area of the physical paper.
