Preview

The print preview option, available for many SwissSys charts, gives you the chance to inspect any page of your printout before actually printing. For most purposes it provides an accurate representation (WYSIWYG - What You See Is What You Get), but some fonts may not reproduce well on screen.

Using Print Preview

Viewing Controls

  • Use the + button to magnify the preview
  • Use the - button to reduce the preview size
  • Navigate between pages using the page controls

Preview Limitations

  • You cannot adjust the page center in preview mode
  • Some fonts may display differently than they will print
  • Screen resolution may affect the accuracy of fine details

Troubleshooting Preview Display

If fonts or formatting don’t look correct in the preview:

  1. Try a TrueType font - These typically render more accurately in preview
  2. Check your screen resolution - Higher resolutions provide better preview accuracy
  3. Print a test page - The actual printed output may be more accurate than the screen preview

When to Use Preview

Print preview is particularly useful for:

  • Checking page breaks and layout
  • Verifying font sizes and spacing
  • Ensuring all content fits properly on the page
  • Reviewing headers and footers before printing
  • Confirming the overall appearance of tournament reports

This feature can save paper and time by catching formatting issues before sending the document to the printer.
