I haven't tested that, but that should scale up your view to
approximately the page size. OTOH, if you know the label size in
advance you can just multiply the inches by 72 to get the size your
view needs to be able to fill the label and just create it at least
that size. For a 2.34 x 4 label, that would be a label 169 x 288,
but as long as you preserved the aspect ratio, you could make it any
amount bigger and still be fine if you use NSFitPagination.
So, I tried scaling my displayed view just by setting the CTM, and
that ended up clipping to the view bounds.
Then I tried creating a new view with the page size values
(approximately 2288 x 166). For some reason, this *still* prints
smaller on the page. The printer is actually 300 DPI, and it's as if I
have to scale to 2.31" X 4" (* 300) to get it to do exactly what I
want, but now we're working in device coordinates, which seems to go
against the docs and common sense.
This is getting to be very frustrating :-(
Thanks for your suggestions.
