Feature to resize with rescale

[t.yellow.eyes]

I missed an option to resize document dimensions with rescale of the content. If I resize the document with the current resize option, it is only possible without rescaling of content. That means if I make a document much smaller, content gets cut.

Hello t.yellow.eyes,

Yes such an option is not yet available in the Editor, but I will pass it for consideration.
In the mean time - why do you need to resize the pages inside the PDF file?
If you want to print e.g. an A3 page on an A4 sheet of paper - you can do the rescaling at print time when you are actually printing to paper.

Resizing the PDF itself will be extremely helpful because construction documents, meant for printing on an engineering plotter, are usually created in a small PDF versions meant for printing on an office printer and thereby making the drawing scale meaningless. However, if I can blow the drawing back up to engineering size, my job is much easier and I won't be calling every single client who sends me PDFs I can't use.

Hello east.coast,

If you receive a file that is not in 1:1 scale, and need to e.g. make measurements in it - you can easily change the scale used for measurements, and from build 309 - even calibrate the measurement tool and create preset scales:
How do I use the calibration tool in place as of build 309 in the Editor?

And if you need to rescale - you can first increase the page size, then select all the contents on that page and using the Object -> Transform Selection - effectively resize the content to the new page size as well.

Stefan
