Eddie does not print or prints only a small part of my design - Mac (Eddie)

When printing from Mac Preview or Adobe Reader, the default page size is always 8.5” x 11”. This is just way too big for Eddie. If you print with this page size, Eddie may print a small corner of your design or he just won’t print at all. Always check the print preview to make sure it looks right and doesn’t have large margins. Click the Paper Size dropdown menu to select one of the presets or create your own size. See section 5E of the manual for help on creating your own custom page size.

Tip! Use Presets

Once you have a specific page size and setting combination set, you can create a Preset for it.  Just click the presets dropdown and select Save Current Setting as Preset....
