Re: QTRip misses parts of image

2004-12-07 by Roy Harrington

Are you using the latest 2.1b version?  If not the entire layout feature
is greatly improved so you should use that. 

One thing to consider is that there are margins that have to be taken
into account -- so 4 full size A5's won't fit onto an A3 sheet.  
Sending the log files for the scenario that failed would help in
diagnosing the problem.
