Printing a 3D document

When you want a hardcopy of a 3D view, you can quickly print one from your default printer. You can also change the page setup to select another printer and specify the details of how you want the 3D view to print.

Steps:

1. Click the Print button from the Standard toolbar.
Or use the File menu and click Print.
2. Click Setup and adjust the following options:
   • Click the printer name drop-down arrow to choose a printer.
   • Click the paper size drop-down arrow to choose a size.
   • Click Portrait or Landscape to set the orientation.
   • Set other properties, such as Map Page Size, as required.
By default, Map Page Size is checked to be the same as the printer paper settings. This is useful to ensure your map layout is not clipped during output. If you uncheck Use Printer Paper Settings, you can create a map page size independent of the printer.
3. Click OK to close the Page and Print Setup dialog box.
You will now see a preview of your settings appear when you return to the Print dialog box.
4. Optionally, configure the Output Image Quality, and Number of Copies settings.
5. Click OK to print the document.

• Use the What's This button on the Print and Page and Print Setup dialog boxes anytime you want further information on options within their property pages.
• Tiling and Data Driven pages are not applicable for 3D documents. As a result, these options will be disabled. They are only used for map layouts in ArcMap.
