PDF Scale printing

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hey guys,

I need a little help. I'm creating PDF's as a better way of having our plans ready to print whenever we need them. The problem is that we are creating our PDF's for 11x17 sheets and no matter what margins we use when we print them out they always print a tiny bit smaller than they should. So we aren't getting them to print at scale.

Please help

Link,

Yeah, checked all the possible settings available...

But I will post when we install AC10 to see if it does anything.

When a layout is revised we publish the previous version as PDF, thinking this was a sensible method of keeping a record of revisions. Having read this topic and checking these PDFs seem to be slightly smaller than they should be, like 99.5% smaller.

Shrink to fit is not on, 100% etc. as mentioned.

Has anyone worked this out, or alternativly how are revisions usually handled by other members?
