Hello, I’ve been printing SVGs in 8.5 x 11 for a couple of days happily with my new AxiDraw A3 size. Today, I changed my document size to 6 x 8 and the plotter keeps printing what appears to be 8.5 x 11 positioning. I’ve triple checked Doc settings, how clean the SVG is etc. And I can’t get it to print 6×8 image centered.

Use case problem recreated:
1. I set the doc size to custom 6×8 page size.
2. I import an SVG image and center it (roughly 3×3 centered on 6×8)
3. I check to make sure I have the correct hardware config in AxiDraw Control, which I do.
4. I make sure with motors off that the plotter head is at 0,0.
5. I insert my pen and run the plotter.

Result, the plotter will move down and to the right a bit, then draw my 3×3 image on the right hand side of my 6×8.

I don’t know what is happening. Things I “think” might be happening:
1. It somehow can’t forget the original 8×11 setting in some odd way
2. The motors are broken (doubt that)
3. My SVG has some hidden 8.5×11 container that keeps throwing my image off
4. When the pen initiates it first moves to find what appears to be a new 0,0 x,y starting point.
