Print from Revu

Revu provides a robust collection of print options, all controlled from just one dialog box.

ClosedPrinting from Revu

Printing in Revu is controlled through the Print dialog box. To open this dialog box and print the current PDF, click Print or press ⌘+P.

Print options are broken up into sections. Some of these will be integral to your current print job and others will probably go untouched. Click Show Details to reveal these sections. Each section and its options are discussed below.

ClosedPreview Section

Shows how the PDF will appear on the printed page. Red borders appear to indicate the margins defined for the page. Step through the pages using the navigation tools at the bottom of the preview pane.

ClosedPrinter Section

Printer: Lists the available printers on the system.

Presets: Lists the available printer presets. To save the current printer settings as a preset, select Save Current Settings as Preset and name the preset in the dialog box that appears.

Copies: Determines how many copies of the PDF or selected pages will print.

Pages: Determines which pages of the PDF will print. Select either All or From and enter the desired page range.

ClosedLayout Section

Select Layout from the Layout/Paper Handling menu to reveal the Layout options.

Pages per Sheet: Determines the number of pages to a sheet. Choosing a number other than 1 will result in the defined number of pages being shrunk to fit the page.

Border: Draws a box around each page on the sheet to create separation. Select the desired border style from the menu.
