Better print management powertoy for printing to OneNote

Hi,

The powertoy is very useful.

However, is it possible to make it such that the very 1st page does not
shrink resulting in the paper under it being visible at the top?

(The intention is to want to have each page having one page of the document.)

I have tried making using A4 size both for OneNote and also for the document
(PDF / Word). When this happens, an error box would occur, with debugging
words.

Another minor request would be to include the "page width" and "reading
view" of Windows Journal into OneNote 2007; Although there are the options of
altering the % of the document we are viewing and also this powertoy, when
viewing the file in vertical screen orientation (On a 12 inch Tablet), it
still requires one to fiddle around with the stylus to read portions of a
page that are not on screen.

If there is time for this to be implemented, I would make the complete
switch to OneNote 2007 because although i have it, i still prefer Windows
Journal just because of the "Page Width" and "reading view" options.
(However, Windows Journal has a tendency nowadays to "hang" when opening
files or refuse to save a file; It would recover documents however when i
open it again; running "Journal /RepairNoteWriter" does not eliminate such
problems.)

Thank you.

Regards,

Ebenezer

Just to add on,

Is it also possible to allow one to use the "Page up" and Page down" buttons
and the tablet pc buttons to "turn a page" (navigate from page to page) after
using the powertoy?

No, as you might have noticed.
Naturally not: The tool creates *subpages* and the PageUp and PageDown
buttons only work on a page and can not be used for navigating to the
next page or subpage.

Indeed very useful for covering the shortcoming s of the "Send to
OneNote" printer.

Sorry, I do not fully understand your scenario.

What do you mean by "shrink" and "paper under it"?
Do mean that when using the PowerToy the first page of the printout is
moved to the top and covers text which was already there?
(The intention is to want to have each page having one page of the
document.)

This is easily done by selecting 1 page in the PowerToy's dialog.
In case you want to have some "leading" text as a starter for a series
of pages which shall still be visible after the re-arrangement of the
printouts you might work as follows:
1.) Under "Tools | Options | Send to OneNote" select the destination for
the printout "current page";
2.) Create a new subpage for the "leading page" which holds the
introduction;
3.) Put the focus to the new subpage;
4.) Print the document to OneNote. The printout will be placed on the
subpage;
5.) Run the PowerToy and select to have 1 printout per page.

The result then is:
(a) The leading page left unchanged and
(b) all of the printouts on a subpage.
I have tried making using A4 size both for OneNote and also for the
document (PDF / Word). When this happens, an error box would occur,
with debugging words.

What were you doing?
Printing to ON or using the PowerToy on the printouts?
Another minor request would be to include the "page width" and
"reading view" of Windows Journal into OneNote 2007; Although there
are the options of altering the % of the document we are viewing
and also this powertoy, when viewing the file in vertical screen
orientation (On a 12 inch Tablet), it still requires one to fiddle
around with the stylus to read portions of a page that are not on
screen.

One can use the scaling feature of ON (field in the standard toolbar).
