This may fall udner the dumb question category. but I am tryiong to create a PDF file for a tabloid-sized page - 11 by 17 horizontal. The image is being chopped down to letter size, with half the content missing.
I am using Pagemaker. I've read through help and this forum, looking for the fix. BTW - This is a GREAT PROGRAM!!!!! Thanks, Reed |

It's fixed! And my guess that it was a dumb question was upheld by further study.
I had changed Pagemaker from letter size to tab size so I could create a PDF of a newsletter showing both pages on each side on one sheet. I forgot that when I sent this to your program I had to also change print settings (it's not automatic). Dumb mistake - easy fix. Everything's working fine again. Thank you. Reed |

Hi there Reed,
Thanks for the plug. 
Glad you answered your questions by yourself. You are right: the paper setting in a program and the corresponding setting in the printer are not automated. The only program that I know of that comes close is CorelDraw that will check the printer setting, and offer to "fix" the printer's settings automatically, but only for paper orientation, not for paper size.
