Change paper size

Post by bmachia »

Hoping someone can help. I'm running PDF-XChange Viewer ver 4.049.

I was given a pdf file that comes up defaulted on an 8" X 11" letter sheet, but the drawing was done in landscape. I've figured how to rotate the drawing to Landscape. But, now I'm finding things are soooo small, I can't read the captions.

How can I resize this pdf so I can print it on 8" X 14" landscape and take advantage of the entire sheet of paper?

Hello Bill,

Provided that you have the printer and the paper you can set the scaling to "Custom Scale" and zoom the document Up/Down with as many percent points as you want, and while this can result in parts of your original document fall in an area which your printer is unable to print (or fall outside of the sheet) you can scale to what suits you. The scaling type is right above the "Auto Rotate sheets"

Best,
Stefan
