• Plan for the need to print and...

  • Choose a page size for printing before creating any logic

  • Test the printing of all Unity Pro Languages to determine the settings required to achieve optimized desired results

  • Use a single and common Number of Columns for all LD Sections in the Project

    • Use the Unity Pro Project Settings to fix the Column Size of LD Sections

    • Comments can be added to rows to serve as page break guides

  • Create FBD Section logic with regards to the page size and page breaks

    • Comments can be added to FBD Sections to serve as page break guides

    • it is recommended to use the Standard FBD Column and Row settings

  • The Number of Columns in SFC Sections must be managed to the test determined limit by the user

• Keep in mind the following...

  • Unity Pro only prints the occupied Columns and Rows used in FBD, LD and SFC Sections

  • Printing to Paper vs. Files has different final result expectations

    • Printing to Paper

      • Achieving acceptable results when printing FBD, LD and SFC Sections will most likely require the use of page sizes larger than 8.5x11

    • Printing to Files

      • Optimized results may require a variety of page sizes

      • Searching for Text content is expected

  • All of this takes time and is most likely not as simple as just clicking Print
