The invention provides a graphic user interface and method for selectively printing graphic objects displayed on a display device that allows a user to simply create a geometric object (e.g., a rectangle) on the display device, which defines an area of the display device to be printed and represents the actual printable area of a selected print medium, and to print the graphic objects and/or portions of the graphic objects within the geometric object. The size and position of the geometric object can be changed by the user so that the user can readily determine the layout of the graphic objects to be printed and the relative sizes of the graphic objects with respect to the actual printable area of the selected print medium when the graphic objects are printed. |
