Has anyone else 'upgraded' yet?
I did last night. I had been working on a 3-page model on the I-Kube mod. I was printing Actual Size, but I had printed off two pages , and hadn't printed off the third yet when I upgraded.
Before the upgrade, I'd had the bottom floor printed from a few days ago printed at Actual Size. Last night I printed off my roof at actual size. Then the upgrade notice came up.
After the upgrade, printed the last page at Actual Size and it is substantially smaller in scale than the other two pages. It was an A4 pdf, printed on Letter-sized paper.
Did the new Acrobat Reader internally rescale?
Maybe I just need to move away from Adobe...

These photos show the extent of the reduction

You aren't the only one to have this problem. Experienced it during my paper city build, but thought it was just me.

Considering that Acrobat plays such an important role in the printing industry, that would be quite a disastrous bug. Hope they fix that up quickly.

I'm really tempted to print off another building with all three pages, but I don't want another of these buildings. I want to move on to one with my own templates and textures. I also have a concept of my base blocks for the attached shops. Several projects that are working towards a common goal.
I wonder if this is going to force us to 'Fit to Page' now. I don't know why they would want to force users to do that, though

This idea occurred to me while at work...
Use gimp to make a .png of what you want to print. Then print that.

That's what I did yesterday afternoon when I reprinted Bruno's horses, with my mods

i uninstalled DC and then googled a direct link for XI. i was not the only one unhappy :-) try this get.adobe.com/de/reader/otherversions/it's a german page but you can select the language (schritt 2)

just remembered the problem i had with DC was probably not really a DC one.
i found that after updating to win 10 the new printer driver always kept a min margin thereby reducing the page size. either the print was smaller or cut off on the edges.
first i thought it was a DC problem and went back to reader XI but later i reinstalled the printer drivers (or updated ones ... don't remember which) and that did the trick.
but since then i have not gone back to DC because i don't want to give it a chance to produce problems on it's own :-)

I haven't done Win 10, yet, so that wasn't my issue, but I probably need to update my printer drivers

small update: i finally made one of my small dreams come true and built my own pc. while setting it up i installed win 10 and came to the point where i decided to give acrobat reader dc another try ... no problems so far. so the other problem was just a printer driver thing.

After updating printer drivers, I've also had no issues (except for that border thing)
