Save as PDF → Then print with custom settings.

This helps avoid wasting paper and keeps things compact.

• Did you try Ctrl + P as a shortcut?
• Did you select Save as PDF in the destination?
• Are your margins set to Minimum?
• Is your scale too large (causing extra pages)?

If any one of these fixes it, you’re good.
