      Hello,

      I am having trouble printing to scale.

      Basically I wanted to print at 1:1250 to a PDF at A1...so I downloaded CutePDFto help me, set camaera to parallel and a top down view. I have unticked fit to page size and went to the advanced options of the paper size in CUTEFTP as printer to try and find A1, but I could not.

      Anyway I typed the dimensions of A1 in to the page size, as I type the height the width changes.....Even more annoyingly the model extents is constantly greyed out. I unticked fit to page etc etc. Im having a nightmare with it. As far as I can remember use model extents was available before I downloaded cutepdf...so is it that?

        Could you post a screenshot of your Print dialog?
        Also, maybe attach the model itself?

          Ok Screenshot and model I am having trouble with as the model is 6mb. Im not sure how to post a screenshot...any help on that would be cool, could email the stuff?

          If anyone could get the model to work and print to pdf on an A1 at 1:1250 on their machine then id be happy with just the PDF?
