When you select drawings of several sizes and several printer instances,
Tekla Structures sends each drawing to the printer instance that is using the smallest paper size on which the drawing will fit. For example, if you have two printer instances selected, one A4 and one A3,
Tekla Structures will send A4 drawings to the A4 printer instance and A3 to the A3 printer instance.
