Lavanya,

 

If you do print at 100% as auggested by Monika and it (still) fails, are you using a PostScript (emulating) printer driver, and if not, what happens if you switch to that or print to/save as PDF and print from Acrobat?

 

When you write either 8 inches or 12 inches, does that mean that it can vary with different prints of the same line made in the same way?

Lavanya,

 

I believe it will help helpers if you can post screenshots of what you are using/changing, please use the Insert Photos button at the top of the Reply box so we can see them straight away (attatching hides them).
