Page Sizing & Handling for Print

Hello,

 

We currently utilize Adobe Acrobrat Pro and Reader (Win 10) and are running into an issue where users are not selecting the option 'Fit' in the Page Sizing and Handling portion of the print dialog options. This becomes a problem for most of our documents as they contains critical header and footer information generated when the document is created.

 

Ultimately what we are looking to do is set the 'Fit' option as the default for all users and versions of adobe however after looking through Adobe's Enterprise Toolkit options we were unable to locate anything that may help us. Is this option acheivable via registry or re-deployment?

Hi @frank_3540 @Kyle5D51 

 

 

We just found something for you to try: 
Please go to the Path HKEY_USERS\<cur user SID>\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\AVGeneral and set the value of iprintScaling DWORD to 2 (“Fit” option).
Please note that this setting is user-specific, and thus, we need to make a change for the specific SID.

I'm sharing a screenshot for reference. 

 

 

 

Let us know if this helps.

Hi @Kyle5D51

 

Following up to check if you have found an answer to your question. 

Sadly, Adobe does not provide any settings or registries that may allow you to configure Acrobat's Print settings that way.

OK, that sucks, but it seems to remember the last used setting for this option.  Do you by any chance know where that info is stored ?
