A somewhat sophisticated workaround, assuming that you are printing to a PostScript printer, is to edit the PPD file for the printer to change the imageable area to 0 for the 11x17 paper (either labelled as "ledger" or "tabloid"). There is no easy workaround other than third party imposition plugins. Apparently, though, the actual Acrobat implementation of "booklet printing" does the equivalent of "fit to printable area" accounting for the unprintable margins on your page.

I assume that you might be printing 8.5"x11" pages to 11"x17" paper for your booklet in which case you would reasonably expect that the 8.5"x11" logical pages in your PDF file would be printed full size on the 11"x17" paper. Thanks for the information about doing "booklet printing." That changes the situation significantly. Is there any way I can upload an image here to illustrate the problem?
You, my dear befuddled friend, should select “None” from this list, as you know that you Intentionally and with Great Purpose designed your document for output at a specific size.I am doing the booklet printing, so the scale is not available. This is a pop-up menu item on the front of the print dialog box and featues the following options: The thing you folks need to look for is a control Adobe calls “Page Scaling”. Unfortunately, its calculation doesnt consider the existing margins of the document. Select a good overlap where the pages can be joined later. Set the ‘Tile scale’ to 100 if not already at that setting. Go to ‘Page Scaling’ and select ‘Tile Large Pages’. Stop trying to guess what I want or need. Printing from Adobe Reader shrinks the page to fit (by default). When you have the file open in Adobe Acrobat Select File > Print to open the ‘Print’ dialogue window. By scaling to 100, the page and the drawing will remain unchanged.

If I’ve purchased Adobe Acrobat Professional, it’s for a reason. Set ZoomSmart Scaling in the printer driver to 100.

Maybe it’s okay for people who download the free reader, but really guys, DO NOT WANT. You can adjust the Tile Scale to fit the size of your panel by adjusting the Tile Scale. You can change the default poster to multiple pages by selecting File Print and then the poster option. Using fuzzy logic to guess what a user might want isn’t necessarily bad, but it smacks of Microsoft XP’s maddeningly invasive “helpfulness”. After you’ve converted your image, right-click it and select File > Create > PDF from File in Adobe Reader (free software). I’ll give you the same solution that I give Art Directors, but first a rant.ĭon’t ask me why, but Adobe Acrobat has a tendency to try to scale print jobs to make the artwork fit the page. You can place the view on a sheet to see how big it will print and be sure to plot 100 from the sheet view. Now let’s get you on track, so that you can hurry up and get your shot… and get me paid.” Set your view scale to the final required plot scale and then plot. Because the PDF is created at A1 it is a virtual piece of paper at. Need to reduce the scale of the A1 PDF to 50 so it prints true to scale on A3, but Adobe reader and the printer driver do not seem to allow this. “No, I didn’t,” is my reply, “Adobe Acrobat has simply printed it at the wrong size. Having trouble printing A1 size PDFs to scale on a printer whose max page size is A3. Note: Enlarging the area reduces the printed resolution. (Optional) To enlarge the selected text or graphic to fit the sheet of paper, choose Fit To Printable Area from the Page Scaling pop-up menu. Just imagine after 5 hours of meticulous graphic design how distressing it might be to get a call from an Art Director screaming “YOU MADE IT THE WRONG SIZE!!!”. Make sure that the Selected Graphic option is selected in the Print Range area of the Print dialog box. While I rarely have time to personally reply to comments on my website, one comment to that article did seem especially deserving of its own post, as I’ve seen the question pop up far more often than I’d like: PDFs don’t print at the correct size… they’re too big or too small… often by minute amounts. Once your pdf is open and you have found the page you want to enlarge, its time to let Adobe do its magic In the menu bar select FILE and PRINT. Despite all of my exciting stories from the world of feature film production, the most popular article on this website is currently that of a workaround I have discovered for a missing booklet imposition feature in Adobe InDesign CS3.
