How to print out PDF at 110%

[Gregmw]

Hi all,

I am trying to print out a PDF F-Hole template that is 110%.

I zoom in at 110%, then in the printing screen, I tick print View,scaling none but they are still coming out at 100%.

I have tried using the select tool and the same thing?

I want the larger size so that I can use a router template guide .

Thanks for any help

regards

Greg

I've never tried to print a PDF at 110% but I do know that what you set the viewing size as has nothing to do with the print size. When you set Page Scaling in the print window to "None" that makes it print actual size or 100 %.

I don't see a way to print a PDF at 110 % using Adobe Reader. You could use the snapshot tool and crop around the image then paste that into a photo program such as InfanView. Then print from the photo program where you can set the image size in inches, cm, etc.

Thats interesting Jack,I did a few GOOGLE searches before I posted my question and I couldn't find an answer.

Maybe its not possible to do ?

Can you open it in PhotoShop and resize there?

On a Mac, Preview allows you to print to 110% scale. I'm almost certain there's a way to do that in Acrobat Reader.

If worse comes to worse, send me the PDF, and I'll send you back a scaled version.

Here's a jpeg of the F-hole taken from the Fender website.

The following post shows how to print it actual size in IrfanView. You could increase the height by 10% and get the size you want.

shown 100 and 110

page scaling = none when printing.


for future PDF reference, if you go to "print setup under file on the menu and then click on "properties" next to the printer name - then to the "layout" tab... and then to "advanced", you'll see the scaling that allows a percentage.

it's what you call "buried"

You guys are the best! Thanks heaps for your help.

I had the same problem yesterday printing some neck contours for routing pucks. I have a freebie convertor prog and converted the PDF to a jpeg and opened it in ACDSee a pentax photo prog., resized it there by % then converted back to PDF and printed.

Worked ok. Couldn't find a "scaling" adjust on my Canon print preview.
