Show line numbers	Select this checkbox to have line numbers printed.

Orientation	In this area, specify the paper orientation. The available options are: Landscape Portrait
Style	In this area, specify the style of the printout by selecting the relevant checkboxes. The available options are: Color printing: print code in color. Syntax printing: print code with syntax highlighting. Otherwise, code will be printed as plain text. Print as graphics: generate graphics and send it to the printer driver. Otherwise, the IDE sends text to the printer driver. This is a legacy option that might be helpful if there are printer driver issues. For example, if you clear this option and print to a PDF printer, you can select text in the result file. When the option is selected, you cannot select and copy text in a PDF file.

Header and Footer

In this tab, specify the contents and placement of the header and footer.

Item	Description

By default, PyCharm suggests to print the name of a file $FILE$ in the header and the current page number $PAGE$ of all pages $TOTALPAGES$ in the footer. The following print keywords are recognized: $FILE$ prints fully qualified filename. $PAGE$ $DATE$ $TIME$ $FILENAME$ prints filename without path. $TOTALPAGES$
