Reuben,
        Try playing with your diagram scale settings.  The "Fit To"
option does not work in the win32 version of Dia.  I have found that if
you scale the diagram anywhere from %25 to %35, then you will be able to
print it to a standard piece of paper.

Reuben,

you might try exporting to Windows Metafile; that seems to work better
for me than PNG, especially for resizing.

Hi there,

I found the printing to be a bit troublesome as well. My current method 
for printing a diagram is to export the digram as a PNG file and then 
import to into Microsoft Word using Insert/Picture/From File. You can 
then use the print functionality from Word (I guess this technique would

work equally well with Writer in the OpenOffice suite for those who want

a more open source solution!!)
