I'm having some trouble printing a subclass of an NSView, here's the details. In the drawRect: method of my view class - once I determine that the current drawing context is not to the screen (i.e. I am printing) - I would like to be able to use the entire printable region of the paper as configured by the Page Setup/Print options. However, the NSRect that is passed to drawRect: is very small, and not at all proportional to the configured page.

For example, when printing to a US Letter size page (8.5" x 11") the drawRect: method gets passed a 100x100 rectangle that is centered on the page rather than a rectangle that matches the printable region of the page (i.e. page size minus borders).

Any ideas on how I can draw to the entire printable region of the page?

I would suppose you're using the same view to print that the one you're using in your interface.

If you want to draw in a bigger area, you will have to create a dedicated print view.
