Incorrect A4 size when creating print preset for adobe PDF?

Hi
I've run into a strange "issue", which I'm trying to understand.
If I create a new document in InDesign CS4 (or CS5) in papersize A4, the size is obviously 210mmx297mm. All is good.
If I want to print this document as a postscript document, to a file, I create a new Preset.
1) File->Print Presets->Define
2) New
3) Printer: Adobe PDF
Now if I select the Setup option the paper size says A4, but the size is: 209,98mm x 297,039.
Anybody care to explain why it's not a "correct" A4 size?
Thanks in advance!
Ruvan

Guys, I really appreciate the time and effort.
I haven't done the math, but I think its still a little strange that the width is a little too small and the height a little too big.
Anyway, what I also think is a bit strange is that if I select a real printer physical printer, not Adobe PDF, then the sizes are all correct.
Thanks
Ruvan

  • Incorrect page size when creating PDF from Excel 2013 (export and print)

    I am in the USA so everything tends to default to 8½"x11" ... but I created a document in Excel with A size settings. I have attempted to export it to PDF with every setting I can find set to A4 and I have attempted to print the document to PDF again with every setting I can find set to A4 (page size, layout - advanced - paper/output - paper size - A4) with all scaling turned off and yet when I open the finished document in Acrobat XI Pro (with all updates installed) the document properties lists it as 8½"x11". I don't see any resize document settings in Acrobat or any other reason it would be anything but A4 in Acrobat's settings, and I've even had someone in our design department that uses Acrobat extensively look at my steps and they don't see where I'm making any mistakes.
    Does anyone here have any suggestions?

    Notice in the illustration the button Page setup.
    Click on that and see if you can set printer from there.
    I don't know whether this is in the PC version.
    This is an adobe dumb idea inserting a Print menu in between a print menu and the printer, and not allowing the Printer to do the control Setup itself.
    One of them ideas that came up when a developer was sitting around twidling his thumbs, and saying hey lets do this.  Another idea That comes along with this, is the inserted property feature called simplex printing. If you want to print a PDF duplex you can setin printer till cows come home and you blue in the face. Won't print Duplex.  You have to Click Propties and Locate the command simplex, and turn off.

  • Printing Problem to Adobe PDF printer

    When I print to my Adobe PDF printer I comes out unreadable, but if I copy the unreadable text and paste into word I can read it.
    Unreadable text in Acrobat is in Courier, and readable in Acrobat is in Vernada (that's what is shows in word).  Does anyone have any ideas?
    Version Acrobat Pro 9.4.5

    I talked with Adobe and they showed me an option for fonts (listed below).  Uncheck the hightlighted option.
    And now it prints correctly.

    Hi voltric2014,
    If you are on Windows, you can download and install the CreatePDF Desktop Printer, which would allow you to "print" to PDF from Word. You'll find a link to the installer on the CreatePDF page at https://cloud.acrobat.com. Here are the instructions for installing it: Using Adobe PDF Pack
    Please let us know if you have additional questions.

  • Error when creating document flow for delivery

I have tried to confirm the tranfer order and I receive the "error when creating document flow for delivery . In order to avoid inconsistencies the goods movement posting was cancelled." It seems like the document already exist.
    How can I do to confirm the TO and post the GR.
    Thanks

  • When I Print a Document to PDF and Save a PDF the format displays differently.

    We use PDF with Microsoft Dynamics GP. When we Print a document to PDF the format of the form is fine. When we SAVE a document to PDF the format is off. We believe we have ruled out application issues.

    We are opening the document with Adober Reader. The same Application was used for both documents.
    This image was printed from the Application to a PDF and opened in Adobe Reader.
    This is the same document from the same application, but when we SAVE to a PDF the format of the gridlines is off.

    Hi,
    Can i change the default location for my Adobe PDF printer?
    i'm using QXP 7 and when printing i select Adobe PDF 7 and the same ppd. Now when clicked on print, it does not give the option to select the location. Is there any setting to change the location or tell the printer to prompt for the location?
    thanks.

  • I would like to create a plugin for adobe acrobat pro 9.0...

    I would like to create a plugin for adobe acrobat pro 9.0 in order to compare pages, delete the same pages and mark pages from first compared document with new and mark pages from second compared document with original. I downloaded the SDK for adobe 9.0 but now I am not sure how to continue? Do I need Visual Studio or can I use another program that is a freeware? What other program do you recommend?  How can I open an .api file in order to see the code? Do I need to place the SDK files in a specific place?

    1. You will need Visual Studio. Getting your first plug-in to compile can be an ordeal, be sure to use a sample project and work with it exactly.
    2. API files are the work of other programmers. You cannot look inside, and to try to do so is a breach of most software licenses.
    3. API files are installed to the Acrobat plug-ins folder.
    4. You will not find samples or code to copy/paste. You should be an experienced C/C++ programmer, you should be familiar with the basics of the PDF file format ISO 32000-1, and you should be prepared to read thousands of pages of documentation.
