Fail to print to PDF in Ubuntu 14.04

[hassenius]

Hey,

Installed SweetHome3D from Ubuntu Repos.
When trying to print to PDF in Ubuntu 14.04 an empty PDF is generated.
When launching from command line, I can see this Java error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.awt.print.PrinterException: Width of printable area is too small.

I've tried updating the Java stuffs as suggested in FAQ re OffScreenSupport:
JAVA_ARGS="-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni \
-Dcom.eteks.sweethome3d.applicationFolders=$HOME/.eteks/sweethome3d:/usr/share/sweethome3d \
-Dcom.eteks.sweethome3d.j3d.checkOffScreenSupport=false"

No idea where to look next.
Any suggestions?

If setting a customized size paper with your own margins in page setup doesn't work, you could try to set the com.eteks.sweethome3d.swing.fixedPrintMargin property that was added in version 4.1. In SweetHome3D command line or your JAVA_ARGS var, simply add the option:

Code: Select all

‑Dcom.eteks.sweethome3d.swing.fixedPrintMargin=0.2

for a 0.2 cm margin.

Sweet,

Went in and fiddled randomly with the page settings, and now it's generating the PDF no problem.
Don't actually think I changed anything, but happy it works now!

Thanks a mill!
