Additional Notes​

Printing Considerations​

QuickPlanX provides more comprehensive options to control the PDF output than the system print panel. For optimal printing results, we recommend exporting your project to a PDF file first rather than using direct printing.

Large Project Printing​

Printing large projects presents unique challenges due to their extensive scope and detail. For detailed guidance on handling large project prints effectively, please refer to our discussion about print challenges.

Partial Export Options​

As described in this article, you can select a group task or subproject task to export only the selected portion of your project.

QuickPlanX also allows you to duplicate an entire project or part of a project to create a new project, with options to control the time period and content of the output. If you need to export only a specific time period of your project to PDF, you can first duplicate the relevant portion and then export the new project.
