The MarketDelta Blog

Currently, Printing in MarketDelta is limited to legacy printers and will not work with the modern printers of today. If you are unable to print from MarketDelta with your printer, you will need to install a PDF printer.  Fortunately, most PDF printers are free and are rather easy to get setup. This article contains a walkthrough on installing a PDF printer called CutePDF and how to successfully print from MarketDelta using this software. CutePDF is freeware software and is no cost to the end user. Although there are many other possible PDF printers that can perform the same functions as CutePDF, we have chosen this version because of it’s tested compatibility with MarketDelta.

Step 1: Download CutePDF (Freeware) at www.cutepdf.com



Step 2: Double-Click the CuteWriter.exe install file

Step 3: Press Next

Step 4: Accept the Agreement, Click Next

Step 5: Uncheck all options to prevent advertising applications from being installed (unless you prefer those option(s) checked)

Step 6: Click Install

Step 7: When prompted to install the PS2PDF converter, Select Yes.

Step 8: After the PS2PDF converter is download, the install will automatically continue

Step 9: Once the Installer has disappeared, the installation is complete

Setting Up CutePDF in MarketDelta

Step 10: Open MarketDelta

Step 11: Click File > Page Setup

Step 12: Click dropdown to select CutePDF printer

Step 13: Select “Portrait” or Landscape” depending on how you want to view the orientation. You will be required to open the “Page Setup” menu to change back and forth between each orientation

Step 14: Click on a chart that you want to print

Step 15: Click File > Print or ALT + P to print or Right-Click on a chart and select “Print Chart”

Step 16: After the CutePDF “Save As” box pops up, save to a folder on your PC to open for printing

Further Considerations:

A PDF reader will be required to open the PDF’s that are generated from the CutePDF printer when printing from MarketDelta. We recommend that you download Adobe Reader (www.adobe.com, click on Adobe Reader link) to download for best compatibility.

Additionally, Printing of charts in MarketDelta even when using CutePDF may not produce a perfect print. Circumstances may vary based on how many elements are present on a chart when printing. A large amount of technical indicators and other chart elements may cause the prints to look pushed together. When printing a chart, resize the chart so that the window takes up as much of the screen as possible.
