Leonard,
In sentence after the paragraph you quoted, I state that I turned off
scaling.  That's not my problem.  The originally stated question is this: Is
there a way to have uniform margins in Acrobat, but to also print with 1"
margins the whole way around?  Turning off the "Scale to Fit" doesn't
acheive that.
If it would help, I can provide two uncompressed PDFs: one that displays
correctly (but doesn't print correctly), and one that prints out correctly
(but doesn't print out correctly)

Cheers,
Matt
