RE: Drafftsight - Problems with printing out scaled drawing to A1
Check for objects on hidden layers, as that will cause the problem. This caused the issue when I tested for it.
One other thing to check is to make sure that there aren't any hidden or non-visible entities in your layout outside of your titleblock that are preventing the drawing from scaling to full page.
One way to check that is to select everything then deselect the titleblock and contents.
Hope that helps

There was a tiny stray element on top right corner I missed.
Removed it, and drawing now fully fills out the A1 page as I intended.
Could not find this solution on Draftsight's very unusually compliacted on-line forum.
So Kudos to you !!!
Thanks so much.
