Hi there
I'm really new at CAD, really. I made a design, with sizes and everything, and I just need to print it to send it to the factory.
But I can't make everything to appear in one page.
I mean... "Print everything or select all" "choose A4 or whatever" "fit in page" "Go"
I am really frustrated, because my impression was that the hard part would be to reproduce what was in my head into the screen, but now I can see it in the screen and for the time being, will send a print screen by email, so they start working.
Any help?
Thanks!!

Hi and welcome to the forum!
It is difficult to help without more information. You can tell us which version you use, which workbenches and you can upload a file and explain what drawing you expect.
I would Use TechDraw workbench, create a page, and subsequently select the objects and place them on the page. Then I would add dimensions.

A Sketcher Lecture with in-depth information is available in English, auf Deutsch, en français, en español.

From here you're able to export your drawing sheet as a PDF. Now you've all printing / scaling settings at your fingertips.

Re: Just printing a drawing
hi welcome
print here means not the same to everyone
a print is like §D printing
you may mean a Paper so its techDraw you woudt like to use
there are lots of Youtube help Tutorials on that
CAD is not a automated system so you need some clicks to get there on FreeCAD
in german i got a video online
