Printing Cropped in Acrobat

[Chuds@adobeforums.com]

I am working with Acrobat 5.0 and I am experiencing some printing issues. I have created a variety of files in PageMaker and then converted them to PDF through Distiller. When I go to print items from Acrobat it doesn't appear that I have the option to reduce the size of the printed document to account for the image cropping that the printer will do. Some of these files fill an 8.5 x 11 page and I would like to print them without experiencing any cropping. The scale of the file is at 100% and I would like to reduce it to account for the automatic cropping the printer will do to it.

I hope I have been descriptive with this issue - please help.

When you are converting to PDF (you haven't mentioned exactly which method you use), there might a box (say in a print dialogue) where you can select "Fit to Page".

Sorry, I should have mentioned that. I print a post script file out of PageMaker and then I open that ps. file in Distiller. To be honest, I haven't had problems with it before. The setting used to show the scaled down percentage. As for indicating a 'fit to page' option, I can't find one. I would think I would be able to control the scale of the print out of Acrobat.
