Question

Print comments on original size paper

I print my drawings to 11 x 17, and send them for review. When I get the review and try to print it out with comments, the drawings are forced to 8.5 x 11, and the comments are printed on a separate sheet. Not acceptable, I need to commented drawings to print out to the original size I printed them. This is getting frustrating. I can't install any third party software, the company won't allow it

You may want to try "Create Comment Summary". There is an option there to choose which page size you want, but there seems to be a bug in that Acrobat shifts all the drawing content to the right by three inches. Weird! But if you go into Edit mode, you can select everything on the page and shift it back to where it's supposed to be. All the content is there, it's just off the page for some reason.

There is probably someone who could write a simple script that would select everything on the odd pages and shift it to the left three inches. That way you wouldn't have to do it manually.

Thanks!

I'll give that a try, but it sounds like you understand my frustrations on this issue.

Hey Adobe, are you listening?
