Print Files

This article helps you understand how to print your files on Asite.

Updated over a week ago

Users on Asite with required privileges can print files in two ways, as described below. The availability of the option to print a file may depend on your accessibility.

Right-click within the Files Listing Area

  1. To print a file via right-click within the files listing area, select the project folder under the Files tab.

  2. Right-click the files you want to print. Select the Print option.

  3. You will get to see the Print Document window.

    The print window contains:

    1. Print Documents Box - To print the selected files. This checkbox is checked by default.

    2. Incl. Metadata - Include the attribute information for the selected file.

    3. Incl. Mark Ups - To include markups while printing the files. If the project is enabled for comment review, you can choose Private Markups and/or 'Public Markups' as required.

      • Note: In case the project configuration was changed from Thin Client Viewer (now discontinued) to Universal Web Viewer, required information related to markups (if applicable) will appear in the following sequence:

        • Consolidated view of all public markups created in Thin Client Viewer (includes all file pages).

        • Private markups created on file that were released as public after the viewer was changed from Thin Client Viewer to Universal Web Viewer (includes only those file pages having private markups released as public).

        • A consolidated view of all file markups created in Universal Web Viewer, including public and private markups on all file pages.

    4. Fit Inside Banners - To fit the file within the margins of the paper.

    5. Print Comments - To include aMessages while printing files.

    6. Incl. Comment Attachments - Include aMessage attachments when printing files.

    7. Only Comment Attachments - To print aMessage attachments only.

  4. Click Print to print the selected files.

Batch Print from More Options

  1. To print multiple files, select the files, click 'More Options', and then select the 'Files > Print File' option.

  2. Click on 'Print File' on the options pop-up. You will see the same 'Print Document' window mentioned in step 3 above.

  3. Select the appropriate checkbox options and click 'Print' to print the files.

NOTE: When markups and associated comments are added to a file, and a linked file is created, the linked file will display the original markups and comments in the Viewer.

However, when the linked file is printed, only the markups and associated comments added directly to the linked file will be included. Markups from the original file will not be available for printing.
