PDF output page size differs from Flare page layout

Post by pdenchfield »

My page layout file specifies 8x9.5 but my PDF output is 9x10.5 - what did I miss?

Weird. On your resulting pages, is the text area the correct size, or is it an inch bigger in both directions?

Do you have any printers marks turned on?

If I print at actual size, the text area appears to be the correct size.

I did set the target to include crop marks, but they throw me off, especially combined with the document properties shown by Adobe Acrobat.

Hi, I got a message via my website contact form from someone named Dave asking if I ever resolved this issue. Sorry - no change! I moved onto a different job shortly after posting this query and now I rarely work with PDF output.
