[Mesquitelist] A Simple Question

[Wayne Maddison]

You can print using the Print items in the file menu.  If you want to 
save the tree to a graphics file, edit that, and then print, you have 
two choices.  You can use the Save Tree as PDF menu item. Or, you can 
ask to Print the tree, and then in the Print dialog box as to save to 
a file.  On Mac OS X, you can ask to save to a PDF.  This actually 
tends to produce better results than the Save Tree as PDF menu item, 
and it's what I use.   On Windows, there is a Print to File option in 
the print dialog, which may or may not save to postscript which can 
be converted to PDF.  Perhaps also there are options to print 
straight to PDF (I'm not fluent in all versions of Windows).
