Why does the first page of construction plans in pdf format print correctly, while the drawings on other pages shrink?

Help! I am trying to print out construction drawings saved as a pdf to a wide format printer. The first page prints correctly, no matter what page I start on. The rest of the pages have the drawings way too small and off center. I am having to resort to printing each page separately. Why is this happening?

Hi there ashp,
Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
Best of Luck!

  • Why does my first page print great and all of the rest are the wrong orientation?

    When I am viewing my PDFs in Adobe Reader, they look great. When I print them, the first page is correct and all of the rest are the wrong orientation.
    Please help!

  • Why does the view window all of a sudden expand the content of the page I am viewing so that I have to go to "view" and click actual size??

    Why does the view window all of a sudden expand the content of the page I am viewing so that I have to go to "view" and click actual size??
    Then a few minutes later, it goes back to expanded again, it is driving me crazy.  how can I stop this????
    Thanks for any help.

    There could be a number of reasons, first thing to check is if you are clicking Command + or Command -. The Command 0 keystrokes restore Safari to the actual size. You can also reset Safari by Safari - Reset.

    Right now (and for quite some time!) the community pages are a real PITA.  Trying to link the two did not bring the nice behavior of the Forums to the Community, but rather brought that stench over here!

    Actually not mad, just indifferent.  I figure in a few months I'll hear that it was fixed and maybe I'll go back there.

  • Why does the highlight feature seem not to work about 1/2 the time in various ibooks.  I'm trying to take notes and about 50 pages into a book the highlight feature stopped working.

    I've long noted that the highlight feature in ibooks is clunky and fairly limited in it's note-taking features, but the last two books I've read I've had trouble getting the highlight feature to work at all.  I click and drag over text and nothing happens.  I try with command depressed and nothing happens.  If I double click a bunch it will eventually highlight one word, but nothing more.  What gives?
    Also, not to be snarky, but why can't I seem to find a button that would read text to speach for me?  How do blind people use this service, or illiterate, or dyslexic, or people like myself who can learn far more from hearing then from reading. 
    And why does the text of a book often render so that it's haf cut off of the page?

    There is a button for speech within the iBooks menu. Edit > Speech. You might be better off buying Audiobooks. You can get them from the iTunes Store or Audible.com

    Because the owners of the songs have not licensed them for sale in the U.S.
    Apple doesn't have any say in the matter. it's up to the owner of the distribution rights for the music.

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

  • Why does the Mail.app CC: field puts me first on the CC: list although I was not ?

    Why does the Mail.app CC: field always rearranges the list so I am first on the CC: list although the sender intentionally did not ?
    I did not see how and where to de-activate this unnecessary intrusion in the company's communication codes.
    iOS on my iphone, correctly leaves my name where it is in the CC: list.

    Hi starbux48,
    Yahoo! partnered with Apple to allow an IMAP style offering on the iPhone, free of charge for their users. However that feature is only available if you use the iPhone. If you want IMAP/POP access on computers then you'd need to upgrade to the Plus level account.

  • Why does the page not move smothe when i scroll?

    Why does the page not move smothe when i scroll?
    Sometimes it even move slower then i Scroll?
    I use a Mac and i have tried to reinstall the program.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    In Firefox 4 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
    * Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

  • Why does the update change my home page and make Google so prevelant?

    Several of the last "updates" involved the changing of my bookmarks and home page,. The so called update required me to spend more time in refreshing the browser to its previous condition. This is frustrating to say the least. Second why does the updated version of of firefox seem to favor google?

    Normally, an update does not change your home page...
    What did you home page change to? That might help identify the source of the problem.
    I assume you have tried changing your home page back to your preferred site, either in the Options dialog or using one of the other methods:
    * [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
    * [[How to set the home page]]
    Did that work at all? By "at all" I mean:
    * Immediately after making the change, if you click the Home button, or launch a new window using Ctrl+n, does your preferred page load? Or is that ignored?
    * Does the setting revert later in your session (you see in Options it has changed)?
    * Does the setting revert after you exit and start Firefox up again?
    * Is the problem only when you use your Firefox desktop shortcut?
    With that information, it will be easier to recommend a solution.
    I'm not sure I understand your second question. Google has always been the default search provider in Firefox. Are you seeing even more Google than that?

  • Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button and othr times it says file, edit, view History, bookmarks, tools, help? I barely learn how to run one version of the page and then it changes

    Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button on the top left that opens a panel with all the things listed in it and then it sometimes has a bar across the top that says File, Edit, View, History, bookmarks, tools, Help? I barely get used to using one type of set up and then it changes to the other without me doing anything??

    [[Menu bar is missing]] and [[Preferences are not saved]] may help to you

    Why does the album artwork appear only when the first song is playing only?

    Hello ckuan. Thx for your reply.
    The songs are not from iTunes, they are from CDs that I had copied to my itunes library.
    It is worth mentioning that I wasn't facing this issue before IOS 5.

  • Why does the back arrow just reload the same page most of the time

    why does the back arrow just reload the same page most of the time
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == most of the time since I installed it

    Hi Keith.
    This is probably a normal behavior that's induced by the way pages are done. Can you provide a link to a page where this happens?
    For example, wikipedia articles often have links that lead to sections of the article and not to actually different pages, as you may know. If you click the Back button, Firefox will lead you to the section of the page you were looking at when you clicked that link. Is this perhaps what you're talking about?
    AJAX pages (i.e. pages that take advantage of heavy duty javascript code and server side technologies) often have troubles like these. It's very hard to prevent this from happening from the browsers' point of view, but Mozilla is trying to find a way for Firefox 4 (at least like time I checked they were). So using the back and forth buttons in gmail will probably be troublesome.

  • Why does the keyboard show up when i read a book in Kindle?

    why does the keyboard show up when i read a book in Kindle?
    it blocks about 1/4 of the page. but when i turn the ipad to horizontal it goes away.

    Try these basic things and see if the keyboard goes away for good.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Quit the Kindle App and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by e tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
