<h3>Adobe <i>Reader</i> messing with print size</h3>
<p/>Printing from Adobe <i>Reader</i> shrinks the page &ldquo;to fit&rdquo;
(<em>by default</em>).  Unfortunately, its calculation doesn&rsquo;t consider
the existing margins of the document, so that it shrinks what it
believes is your whole page onto what it believes is its output page.
The effect typically looks as if your margins have expanded.
<p/>Solve this problem by adjusting the <i>Reader</i>&rsquo;s default in the
print dialogue; unfortunately, this dialogue varies from one version
to the next.  On <i>Reader</i> version 7, there are two entries to
check:
<blockquote>
   Page Scaling (default: &ldquo;Fit to printer margins&rdquo;) &mdash; change to
   &ldquo;None&rdquo;, and<br>
   Scale (default 95%  of Normal size) &mdash; change to
   &ldquo;100%&rdquo;.
