Printing the calculation

 

Okay...congratulations! You've created a project file, added a calculation, entered data, retrieved database information, performed an automatic design, and viewed some graphics. It's time to print this calculation and take a look at what we have provided you with for your documentation.

 

Please remember that you have previously entered project information, title block information, and of course now you have a valid engineering calculation to print.

 

You have two printing options in the Structural Engineering Library: Print Preview and Print. Here are the printing buttons to use:

 

 

The [Print] button sends the printed calculation report directly to the printer.  The other button with the page symbol displays the printout in a window and allows you to review it before sending it to the printer.

 

The "Print Preview" window looks like this. If you are satisfied with it just press the button to send it to the printer.

 

 

 

To continue, simply press the Print  button  and the standard Windows print dialog will be displayed. Select your printer and you will receive a printout looking very similar to the one below.
