Hi, 
I have done a lot of 5x7 templates for cards in photoshop which were printing perfect and now all of a sudden they are printing smaller than the 5x7 size. I have tried changing the scale to media section, doesnt make a difference, I have tried exporting it to a TIFF, doesn't make a difference. If anyone has any ideas on something different to try I would love to give it a go!
Thanks!

Thanks for the advice, I sorted I worked out what had happened. I needed to change my the printer settings to 7x10 instead of 5x7! Silly mistake!

Check the size and resolution in Image > Image size.

It should look like this (choose portrait or landscape).
You may have inadvertently changed a setting in your printer settings dialogue box which made the prints smaller.
