Ah! I missed that one somehow -- didn't think of this as a scaling
issue, and I'd have to redesign my pages to cope with this setting.
It's not intended to be scaled, and as is, the content goes way in
toward the fold. I think it's reducing everything. With different
page styles and margin settings, I could probably make this work.
But I'd have to work with all the other folks who sometimes do the
printing, since it changes the process. Thanks for the pointer,
though!
No need to redesign your pages. I downloaded your file and see that
it is sized 51/2" by 81/2". Reader, using "Booklet Printing" will
print it properly on 81/2" x 11" paper.
That's what I'd hoped, but when I actually tried it, the text was way
off-center towards the center fold (when compared to the same file
sent directly to the printer). Each page image is significantly
smaller on the PDF version (for example, the back page goes from
about 4-3/8" x 7-5/16", to 4" x 6-11/16"), with the outside margin
going from 1/2" to 7/8" and the inside margin also smaller.
Oops! Forgot about that. Sorry. I had already adjusted my templates to
take that into account.
That's OK -- when you've been doing something for a long time it's hard
to remember back at the beginning! But if you happen to have a template
you think would work for me.... :-) I'm still hoping that I can get
back to where I can use a PDF pseudo-printer, there are others I might
try. Sure don't know why suddenly stopped working for me, though!
