TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Here's a strange one that I hope someone can help me with. I
have a Visio 2000 Pro block diagram that fits on 8.5" x 14"
landscape page. When I attempt to print it to Distiller (Acrobat
5.0.5) the diagram prints out as though Distiller had to mash up
the difference between 11" and 14" into 1". The part that's in
the 0" - 11" part of the page looks fine. I've dinked and dinked
with the page setup and distiller settings with no luck at all.
A visit to Acrobat's website has been disappointing -- attempts
to search the knowledge base result in no response. It doesn't
hang, just nothing happens.
Ironically, I started on this because I noticed that an earlier
pdf of this file (probably done with Acrobat 4) was just a
little mangled, like the fonts were changed. After today's
experience, that pdf doesn't look quite as bad.
Any ideas?
