How to print pdf that is too large - 04/29/16 03:46 PM
I've encountered this issue problem many times over the years and I've never found a satisfactory solution, so I thought I would present it to the forum.
I have a .pdf that I'm trying to print with Preview that is too big for 8.5 x 11 paper. I end up with copy that is either too big or too small, never proportional enough to be properly readable. I've tried the usual options over the years -- rotate, scale to fit, fill entire paper -- but I guess I haven't found the right tweaks. I'm going to stay with 8 x 11 paper, not buy legal size or anything like that.
This particular job involves a two-page document from a computer manual, with a diagram of a computer, arrows pointing to jacks, inputs, and so on, and another page with the computer's specs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated for this long, longstanding problem. I've been googling and wasting paper and ink.
ETA: Maybe this belongs in a different forum.
