A regular cause for such +problems lies with Acrobat Reader, which by default enables its option +to scale pages to fit on the printable area of the paper. Since a +printer can rarely print right to the edge, this means that pdf-files +will be shrunk by some (small) factor (even if the pdf-file is +formatted for A4, and your paper size is set to A4 as well). +<p/>Correcting this silliness is not very hard, but the exact details +depend on the version of Acrobat Reader (or "Adobe Reader" from +version 6.0 onwards) you have installed: +<ul> +<li> Mac OS X, Adobe Reader 6:<br> + in the print dialogue, on the “copies & pages” pane, you’ll find a + popup menu titled “Page Scaling”.
