Как в sketchup распечатать чертеж с размерами

NOTE: The “Page size” does not always match the actual page size. In the previous image, the page width is shown as 3.9202 inches, but my drawing measures exactly 5 inches on the printed page.

Your drawing should now print on one piece of paper at actual size. If you drawing is still not actual size, it’s possible that your printer might be scaling the print. For example, my Epson ink jet photo printer prints very accurately (as one might expect from a photo printer). However, my HP Officejet all-in-one printer scales printed drawings by about 0.96 in the Y direction.

Please let me know your results using this procedure by leaving a comment below.

Hi
I am using Sketchup 8 and cannot stop it wanting to print multiple pages. I have closely followed your procedure to no avail.
As a test I have tried to print a 1 inch square but SU wants to print over 2 pages with the square in the middle. It is most frustrating.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
Regards, John Pritchard.

I repeated your test with a 1 inch square. If I skip step 4 in the procedure above, I get the same results you do: Sketchup prints the square on two pages. Perhaps I didn’t explain step 4 well enough. If you email me a screen shot of what Sketchup looks like after you complete step 4, I can check if it looks that same as my test.

Hi – did john email you the file? I have the same problem. Both “Fit to page” and “Use model extents” are unchecked. I use ledger paper size in Adobe Acrobat, and the part is 137 x 172 mm. The printout is always 2-page, with the actual part taking up a small proportion of each page (i.e., it could fit in a single page 2-3 times). This sounds like a serious SU bug. Any solutions/ideas?

Osman Eralp
Post a comment with a link to your file. I will try to print it.

I did this test too and had the same problem. Solution for me – you have to uncheck BOTH “Fit to page” AND “Use model extents”, as it says in Osman´s text. I only unchecked “Fit to page” and that was my error. Hope it helps. Osman Erlap – Thank you for this tutorial! – very helpfull for me.

Yes uncheck both fit to page and model extents and change to 1:1 on scale. Change print page 1-1 and ignore paper size.

Osman Eralp
Yup, those are important settings.

Thank you very much! Resizing the sketchup window was what I needed to make it not stretch across multiple pages. It still isn’t printed at exactly actual size, but I don’t need it to be for what I’m doing. The important part was getting it to print on one page and very close to the actual dimensions.

Good write-up and exactly what I was looking for. I was quite frustrated being able to design what I want but not able to print it full scale. I had gone through most of what you talked about just didn’t change the scales to 1 and 1. To bad this explanation isn’t in the V8 help documentation. Thanks for your help.

Hi
I want to print in a scale of 1:50. but when I opened the Print option window, and uncheck the “Fit to page” and “Use model extents”, I’m not able and adjust the scale. The fields are gray and may not be adjusted. does anyone know why?

Hi All Why sketchup is sometimes such a pain, I want to print a horn shape 46 cm x 52 cm wide on multiply pages but do not now how, it print just on one. thanks

Thanks. Resizing the SU window helped me to not print my small project on multiples pages.

Maalesef benim Turkce website im yok. Dorduncu adimi tamamen yaptinizmi? Bu adim en muhim ve onemli adimdir.

Nice Tutorial.saved my day.Can you explain why page size does not match.
Thank you
Osman Eralp

Not sure what you mean by page size does not match. If you can rephrase your question, I’ll try to help.

“NOTE: The “Page size” does not always match the actual page size. In the previous image, the page width is shown as 3.9202 inches, but my drawing measures exactly 5 inches on the printed page.”

this doesn’t work. sketchup always wants to put the model in the split of multiple pages. sketchup bug or something.

When I use your method the 2D model that I’m trying to print (over 2 pages) looses a section in the middle. Can’t figure out why. I don’y see any way to insert and image to this message

I tried printing an image over two pages. Although there is a blank area in the margins of the two pages, if I cut off the margins, the image is the correct size. I created a 5 inch square. 2.5 inches of the square was printed on one page and 2.5 inches were on the other page. Have you tried cutting off the margins and pasting the two resulting pages together? If you do that, I bet the resulting image will be the correct size.

You may be correct – but not in my case – visualize a 160 x 450 rectangle with a series of 10 drilled holes equally spaced along the 450 dimension. This model , when printed over 2 pages only prints 8 of the 10 holes, therefore, the actual size is not correct.

I want to print my model which is 50 inches in length and want to the same lenght in 4 pages of A3 paper.i have save it in jpg format.any help.thanks

Works perfectly using Sketchup 2016 and using mm instead of inches. Thanks.

Wow! Thanks! Just what I needed to print a full size template for a woodworking project. Worked a treat!

Thanks! That one little thing .. reducing the white space .. so THAT was the problem!!
Osman Eralp
Ya, it’s tricky. I wish it was easier!
Alan Williams

Hi all I am having some trouble printing a 2d sword outline over 2 pages! Sketchup wants to put the sword over 4 pages! I’ve tried reducing the white space but then it just prints the middle of the sword!! Grrrr

Osman Eralp
If you post a link to your file, I can try printing it.

I have an officejet printer and the scaling is way off. When I enter the print-preview screen (file -> print preview) to adjust the scale, all fields were blank! Is there no workaround?

Osman Eralp
I also have an officejet (L7780). Can you post a screenshot of the print dialog box?

I am having the same issue as some with not having any info available in the print window.
I also have screen shots but can’t seem to upload them to this page.

Not:ingilizce pek bilmiyorum ��

Thanks man, this issue had plagued me for years. I would eventually get it after messing with it for a long time, and wasting lots of paper, not knowing exactly what I did to get it to come out right. The Sketch Up help instructions didn’t seem to be very clear or helpful. Your solution is very clear, precise, and it works. The secret is the resizing of the window to reduce the excess area around the target. You also helped to clear up the multitude of choices on the print screen, which were also confusing, and not covered well by the help file.

Osman Eralp
Glad the instructions worked for you!

Great article, exactly what I was looking for. Additionally, I also want to have some parts laser cut but they want it in a CAD format – how do you go from a SU drawing to something a laser cutter can use?

Osman Eralp

The laser cutter will most likely require a vector file. SVG is a commonly used format. Some vendors also use DXF files. Some vendors take only STEP files, and then they convert it to a vector format. Ask your laser cutter operator what file they require. The free version of Sketchup has limited output file formats available. What I have done in the past is create my design in the free version of Sketchup, download the trial version of the Pro version, read the design into the Pro version, and use the Pro version to output the file in the correct format.

Hi,
I’m using sketchup 8.
I have designed a flat template to cut a piece of leather so that when the edges of the leather are pinned to wall vertically and horizontally it creates a pouch large enough for A4 envelopes. I have an A3 printer and know that the template onto two portrait A3 sheets (landscape A2, if you will).
Using your method Sketchup want to print 16 pages! What on earth am I doing wrong?!
Thanks in advance.

Hi, this worked very well for me. I was able to get 1:1 printouts of my project.
Thank you very much.

How to Print Full Scale 1:1 in SketchUp

Full scale printing from SketchUp is useful for creating templates or stencils for cutting something on a bandsaw or scrollsaw. But if you’ve tried this in the past, you may have been frustrated at the number of blank pages that get printed, or maybe the printout splits up the model across 4 pages, when it could’ve easily fit onto one page. In this article, you’ll learn how to print at full scale in SketchUp with predictable results, every time.

Watch the video, or continue on below to read the article for step by step instructions.

If you tried to print that, it would look like this:

So what you need to do is resize that actual SketchUp program window, in order to change the aspect ratio of the workspace to fit the object as tight as possible. So if you’re using SketchUp maximized in full screen, you have to undock it and drag the borders of the window to fit it.

There’s an excellent extension you can install for free that will allow you to pick an object in your model to resize the window to. Eneroth Viewport Resizer².

1. Resize the SketchUp program window to better fit the object you are printing. Use zoom (scroll wheel), zoom extents (SHIFT + Z), and pan (SHIFT + Middle Mouse button) to help fill the area with the model.

(There is a feature called “Use Model Extents” which, in theory, should prevent all that empty space from being printed, but during my extensive testing and research while preparing this video and article, I found that it doesn’t always behave predictably, and when it does work, it doesn’t crop as close to the model as you can when you do it manually. I started a whole forum thread on the topic, you can check it out here.)

1. Verify the printer, paper size, and paper orientation by going to File >Print Setup.
2. Go to File > Print Preview. This will allow us to preview the print out before sending it to the printer.
3. Disable Fit to Page. (Fit to page will scale whatever is in the workspace up or down in order to fit onto a single sheet of paper. We’re printing at full scale, so we don’t want that.)
4. Disable Use model extents. (See above for explanation)
5. Set the scale to In the Printout = 1in and In SketchUp = 1in. (If you want to scale it to something different, feel free to do that. For example, for a 1/4 scale, you’d have 1in in the printout = 4in in SketchUp.)

When you click OK, you’ll see a preview of your printout. From there you can click print, and you should be good to go!

Here’s a bonus tip. To help you better align the pages, try applying a hatch material to the face, like the Cement Masonry Unit Texture, and then disable Use high accuracy HLR, which will disable vector output, enabling textures to be printed.
