=== UPDATE ===================================================================
The issue reported below has been resolved in Ver 10.5.0 build 393.
I appreciate all the hard work and efforts of the support and development team.
==============================================================================


Hello all,

When setting up headers and footers in PDF-XChange Printer Standard, I noticed that the font size in the preview deviates significantly from the actual font size set. Note that if you set the zoom factor in PDF-XChange Editor to 79%, the page view in PDF-XChange Editor and the header and footer preview in the printer driver will be almost the same size, making verification easier.

Note that on my PC, there is a difference of about 2.54x in font size. That is, the fonts in the screen image of the PDF file actually generated when the header font size is set to 10 pt are almost the same size as the fonts in the preview when the header font size is set to 25 pt (= 10 pt x 2.54). You probably don't know what I'm talking about from the words alone, so please watch the video. :wink:

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you so much for your continued support.
