I'm trying to change the default Print Scale (from 70% to 100%) in Acrobat Pro DC for Mac (2015 release on OS X El Capitan) but cannot work out where to do this.  Any help would be much appreciated.

‌Acrobat doesn't have a print scale percentage. Just the fit to page option.

Thanks,  but in the Print popup box just above the document preview box you can see "Scale: x%" and to change this you need to open Page Setup to then change the % from it's default.  It's that default that I'm trying to change but have no idea where to find.

Below is a screenshot for a typical situation.

The paper size is A4

The page size is 20.998 x 29.697 cm

The page scaling options are as show below.

Hope this helps and thanks again.


‌hmm. I wonder if the 70% is just an ignored setting since acrobat reports 100% in its own dialogue above the preview. How does it actually print?
