New Here ,
Aug 30, 2017 Aug 30, 2017

Simple Question:

How to print exact 50% scaling (e.g A1 PDF > A3 paper) in Adobe Acrobat X (version 10.1.16)

OR

Is this simply a crucial function removed from the software? If so why?

extra info:

(Have updated version of Acrobat)

Windows machine at work

Windows 7 Professional (Service Pack 1)

Printing to Ricoh MP C3004ex (multi-function printer) (with updated driver)

There is no "Scaling" option as can be seen below:

Exact scaling for printing is available in Acrobat DC (and I believe also was in Acrobat 11). I don't believe that it was ever “removed” from a version.

Respectfully, that screen grab doesn't look like the version this thread is about. The scaling option doesn't appear available in the version they and I are asking about. But it is a lovely screen grab of a different vers. w/ the desired feature shared swiftly.

The screen shot was in response to your response to my original response that in fact there is support for scaling in Acrobat DC. Repeating, I believe there is a similar control in Acrobat 11 but I do not believe it was in Acrobat 10 and certainly was never “removed” from any version.

I am interested in the original question about that particular version. You repeating an answer about other versions is not the same as answering the original question.
