give_me_a_latte Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I'm trying to work with Math Mammoth Blue Measuring 1. No matter how I print the pages, the printed rulers are not "measuring up" to my real rulers. Which means every measuring exercise is wrong. Is there some secret to get these pages to print with accurate measurements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrissySC Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Unclick the fit to page ... try enabling and disabling the borderless print too. Both will change the scale of the page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrar Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I had this issue when we used that one, but it wasn't a huge problem - it was off by so little that it didn't matter too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried borderless....that got it as close as I've been able to get it. Thanks for the suggestion. I had this issue when we used that one, but it wasn't a huge problem - it was off by so little that it didn't matter too much. Miner are off by at least half an inch each time. Kind of frustrating!

Farrar Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 That is pretty off! If I recall, everything on ours was off by about a millimeter or a little less. It was only an issue a few times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrissySC Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 PDF, use Adobe X, get the latest version ... Check that the paper size is Letter 8.5x11in and not listed as some such other. Update the drivers too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrissySC Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Oh, in Adobe set page scaling to none too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done all that...except I'm not sure how to set the page scaling to none. Is that the same as selecting "Actual Size" instead of "Fit"?

ChrissySC Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 When you go to print, in Adobe, go to file and print. On that page, under page handling is page scaling. It is set to tile large pages. Choose none. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under page sizing and handling there are the size options of fit, actual size, and shrink oversized pages. Nothing else. Maybe we're using different versions of adobe?

Edit: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/896/cpsid_89621.html This will show you the Page Handling area. They are instructing you to shrink, but you can see the "none" selection.
