Why do print margins change when I save or print as a pdf?

I am printing from a church software program.  I need to save the report as a pdf so that it will print and fold on our new Xerox.  However when I print to pdf, the margins change and the text boxes slightly move and no longer line up with the preprinted forms I need to use.  Why does this happen?  Is there any way to change the margins or columns, once in pdf?

Are you sure this is happening when you print to PDF?
And not, later, when you print the PDF?
What print scaling do you choose in Adobe Reader/Acrobat?

  • Why are my gradients changing when I save as an .svg?

    Occasionally when I save to .svg in Illustrator CS5, my gradient changes colors from color-to-color, to color-to-white!
    This never happened in CS3. This also happens sometimes when I past as a smart object into a Photoshop document! GERRRRRRRR!!!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Cheyenne

    Hi Mylenium,
    you are completely correct. I think the issue was due to some strange document settings carried over from CS3. I ended up trashing those files and pasting into fresh CS5 documents, which corrected the issue. However I can't reproduce the issue now
    Thanks for your help though, and I appologise for the lack of documentation.
    Cheers,

  • Why does the font change when importing to my ipad as a pdf

    I have a publisher document with black chancery font which was not on my current computer so I installed the font. It now appears in my document and when I save it as a pdf it seems to be there. BUT when I send it to my iPad the font is not what it should be.

    You need to make sure the font is embedded in the PDF. This is optional in some sofware.
    If it is not embedded, your local font is used. No such local font exists on the iPad.

  • Margins change when I convert WORD 2004 document to PDF

    Hi everyone
    I am trying to get a long, long document which I've written in Word 2004 on my MacBook Pro (running Snow Leopard) here in the UK to open on a Windows based PC.
    I do what I've always done - go to 'print' then 'save as PDF'. No problem there.
    But on opening the document on a Windows PC this morning (where I plan to print from) the margins seem to have grown enormously: whereas on the Mac margins are just normal, on the Windows-based PC, using Acrobat to open the file, nearly a third of the bottom of the page is margin. Also, the font-size has shrunk.
    You may say: So don't open it on a Windows PC! But, I need to as that's all we have here at work.
    Can anyone suggest what might help to restore the margins/font size that I use on the MAC so that they open correctly on the Windows PC?
    Cheers.

    Also, the font-size has shrunk.
    Confirm you are exporting/including the font/fonts used with the original document when creating those PDFs, otherwise you are asking the receiving side, if it doesn't have the same, to take a guess and freely substitute as it sees fit.
    What comes out is rarely the same as what goes in otherwise.

  • Why are images not included when I save my form as a pdf? They are displayed just fine in the online form.

    When I include images in a form I create with FormsCentral they look great online, but when I use FC to export the file to PDF the images disappear leaving white space. All other form elements work just fine.

    Hi;
    For anyone reading this - there are a lot of useful documents and FAQs in this Forum that cover issues such as this one.  On the main FormsCentral Forums page there is a list of popular FAQs and a link to "View complete list of FAQ's": Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why are my images blurry when I save my doc as a pdf?

    I have Microsoft Word 2007. I am trying to save a document with a lot of images to a pdf but after I save it as a pdf...all my images are blurry? I have tried saving the images as a TIF (using Snagit) instead of a JPEG because I thought the problem was with the image. But perhaps it is with my Adobe Reader. I had a friend try fixing the pdf file from her computer and her images come out great while mine are still blurry.

    Hello there,
    Thanks for posting. Did you convert the file to PDF using Acrobat.com (www.acrobat.com)? If not, you may want to give it a try. That being said, it sounds as though it could also be a settings issue in Adobe Reader; unfortunately, if that's the case, I won't be able to offer much assistance. Perhaps this thread in the Adobe Acrobat forum will be of help:

    It may not be of specific help, but it may put you on the right path. Please let me know if you need additional help or information and I will do my best to elaborate.
    Best regards,
    Rebecca

  • Why do Certain fonts change when I convert to PDF from Microsoft word?  They start out 60s chic and end up as a standard font.

    Why do some fonts change when converted from Microsoft word to PDF?  It starts out as 60s chic and changes to standard font.

    Related to the question, I suspect you have licensed fonts that cannot be embedded. Thus, the PDF is using what it is finding to be an equivalent as well as it can guess. Did you check the font list in the PDF?

    If that's the only place you used that unique font, yes.  Convert the textbox to an image file by applying a drop shadow to the font and setting the opacity of the drop shadow to 5%.

    Why do the colors change when I reopen a document?

    Are you opening the same Pages document or do you open another document like Word? I has recently been a similar discussion in this forum.

  • Why are some of my links not opening when I save a document as a pdf?  They are opening in word.

    The links are opening in microsoft word documents but when I save the document to a pdf some of the links are not opening.  The links are containing % or lots of extra numbers.  How can I prevent this from happening?

    What is your operating system?  Reader version?  How do you convert to PDF?
    You write that "some" of the links don't open; what's the difference with links that do open?

  • Page size changes when file is exported or saved to pdf

    I have an illustrator file that is 8.625 x 11.125, purposely made a bit larger than a standard letter sized paper for the bleed effect I am trying to achieve. When I save the file as a pdf or export it asa jpg or tiff itgets shrunk to letter size and the the edge I created with the extra .125 inches is now 'cut' to letter size not just shrunk. How do I save the file so it stays 8.625 x 11.125 inches.

    Milan,
    Make sure the paper/Crop Area size is the right one, and preferably state version. My guess is CS, or maybe CS3.

  • I use Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (11.0.08) When performing "Save as" "Reduced file size pdf" Adobe processes for a while then completely stops, and has to close down. Just started doing that today.

    I have Windows 8.1, and when I right click on the Windows flag (bottom left), the menu gives me a "Search" option. When I enter "%temp%", it goes to " "my username"/ appdata/temp" which is a list of file 1718 file folders. Many are empty but I did a small sample. Is that the right place to delete?    I tried Windows- Disk Clean, but that did not help.

  • Why are my colors changing when copy and paste a graphic from docA to docB both in illustrator?

    Both documents in Illustrator CC are RGB and I'm trying to copy a logo onto a template, but the color of the logo completely changes when I copy and paste it into the template. The logo has three different pinks and they turn red when pasted. There is no graphic styling and the logo is all gradient.

    What is weird is that we get a lot of logos from the same company and we put it on shirt templates so they can see size wise on how it would look on shirts. It's happened with other logos, but very slightly. I asked my co-worker who sends me the logos what version she uses and she also uses CC but does not know what version the other company uses. To them, it doesn't matter if the logo colors get altered, they have the PMS colors to work off of for screen printing. I just want to make sure that if another company sends us logos with PMS colors, we will know how to fix it.

  • Why does planning indicators change when the safety stock change?

    Hai All,
              I created a BOM for a finished material (FM1)and entered another finished material(FM2) in item list.
    Now in MRP, I did single item  multi level planning for the FM1. I checked the planning file entry through MD21 and it has NECH and NECPL marked. I checked for FM2. None of the indicators are set. Then I have been to material master for FM2 and in MRP2 screen and changed the safety stock to 950. Then I checked the plannig file again and I see the indicators NECH and NETPL are checked. I then made the safety stock 0 and checked the planning file. There is no change.
    My question is why were the indicators NETCH and NETPL checked when I increased my safety stock for material FM2 from 0 to 950?
    I understand that NETCH is the planning for Net changes and NETPL is for planning for changes in a horizon.
    Are these indicators set because I made a change to the material? or is there any other reason?
    Thank you.

    Visu
    The planning indicators change when there is an amendment to the planning situation that requires MRP to replan a material. Essentially, by upping your safety stock from 0 to 950 you are requesting that the MRP system replans that material to ensure that there is sufficient safety stock available.
    Hope this helps
    Ian
