Windows 10: Microsoft Print to PDF is not giving me the page size that I pick.

Microsoft Print to PDF is NOT giving me the page size that I pick.It appears to be growing the page size.If I select A4 from the list the resulting pdf has a size of 280 x 396 mm.If I select A5 from the list the resulting pdf has a size of 197 x 280 mm.Is there a setting or registry entry that could be causing?From the examples above it appears to be multiplying the lengths by 4/3.

Microsoft Print to PDF not showing all available page sizes.

Windows 10 Home edition. Also happening on my work PC which is probably some Enterprise edition of Win10

When I go to Print Server Properties for Microsoft Print to PDF I have over 50 page sizes set up including a few custom forms.

When i try to print through Microsoft Print to PDF using Visio (or anything else) the page setup from the print menu only shows the option for A3, A4 and a few other small page sizes.

Any suggestions on how to see all the page sizes?

 

Microsoft Print to PDF - custom paper sizes possible?

Hi,

We suggest that you try to set the paper size of the exact document first. You can create a custom page size before you proceed with
Microsoft Print to PDF, it should auto-detect the paper size of the document.

To set the paper size in Microsoft Office:

• Click on the Page Layout/Page Design tab.
• Click on Size, and then in the options available, click on
  More Paper Sizes...
• Click on the drop-down arrow and scroll down to the last option which is
  Custom size. You will be able to customize your preferred paper size.
• Once done, click on OK, and then proceed with Microsoft Print to PDF.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Microsoft Print to PDF - Bloated file sizes

Why are the file sizes 10X bigger when printing with Microsoft Print To PDF as opposed to Adobe Acrobat?

If I use Adobe Acrobat to print a web page from My bank, the file sizes are roughly 36K in size. However, printing the same web page using Microsoft Print To PDF, the file size soars to over 350K.

Why is there such a HUGE difference in the size of the file when it contains the same data?

This is an issue for me because Adobe Acrobat STILL does not work with Edge. When is this going to be fixed so I can use Adobe Acrobat instead of the awful Microsoft Print To PDF?
