    Correct answer mk-will

    Hi, Eric ( @ericCessna  ),

    the page size of your PDF is correct, but the content is minimized and centered?

    If I am correct you are exceeding the maximum number of pixels that are allowed in a PDF.

    To correct this you must open the Distiller settings you are using and lower the value of "Resolution" on the first tab of the PDF settings.

     

    Bur to be sure please answer the question barb ( @Barb Binder ) asked.

    And describe your PDF workflow.

     

    Regards

    Hi Eric:

     

    Can you show us you PDF export settings in the Publish Pod? Is the paper size specifed there wildly different from the actual paper size? 

     

    Also, I am assuming FrameMaker 2022. Maybe we should actually start there. And with your export to PDF workflow.

    I apologize for the slow delay. Yes I am using 2022 Version: 16.0.4.1062. Strange resolution. I closed everything and rebooted the computer, and it all works fine. I’m thinking that part of the issue was memory. I had a lot of programs open. So I think mk-will may be on the right track with resetting resolution.
