Shrinkage in resulting PDF

ntrygg · 02-23-2004, 08:03 AM

We've been testing PrimoPDF as a way for users to make PDF files from forms filled within Acrobat Reader.

The resulting PDF has the image shrunk with noticeably larger margins.

Is there any way that the document image portion doesn't get reduced?

If we're doing documents that have to go to court, there are rules about font and margin sizes, but also concerns about readability.

The PDf size is affected by two variables, the size of the original source document and the tray size of the driver you are using to render PS.

In this case the only thing you can change would be the paper size of the Driver, to do so follow these steps:

1. right-click the PrimoPDF printer located in your printers and faxes and choose 'Properties'.

2. Choose the 'Device Settings' tab

3. Change the 'Form to Tray Assignment' to the desired size.

Hope that helps!
