PDF Files Printing Smaller Than Original Size – How To Fix This Problem

1. Open your PDF document and press on the print icon. If your printer options do not appear, then look for a link saying “print using dialog”.  Another option is to save the PDF to your computer in order to print through regular settings. See the screenshot below.

2. When you’ve accessed the system printing dialog settings look for the page setup button or tab. See the screen shot below. The page setup button is at the bottom, however in some settings it is a tab at the top of the page.

3. Check the paper size in the page setup section. Here’s the culprit for my small sprinting. See the size of the paper is set to 4″ x 6″ which is very small. Even the preview shows the printing area is no where near the edges of the paper.

4. Simply change the paper size by clicking the drop down menu.

I changed my paper size settings to A4 as you can see above. After that, my printing PDF files smaller problem was fixed. Luckily I got my deadline printing done in time.
