windows 7 - Why does my pdf print as shrunk to 1 inch?



I am trying to print a PDF booklet on our Konica Minolta. The machine will print dual-sided, and you set this option in the 64-bit printer settings on each computer.



I have been printing PDFs as booklets (magazine proofs) for years using Adobe Reader and the Konica Minolta Bizhub.



However now my entire booklet (8 1/2 x 14 saddle-stitch) prints as a 1-inch rectangle in the corner of the page - and in reverse!



I tried the same pdf on a different machine (both are Windows 7 x64) using the exact same print settings, exact same printer drivers and exact same version of Adobe Reader X (10.1.4), and it prints just fine.




I only have this problem with Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat (version 9). Something on my machine is screwy with the Adobe pdf products. I can print double-sided booklets just fine from Adobe InDesign.



Where is my problem, and how can I fix this?


Answer



First I found out the my computer was the only one that had this problem. So I finally installed Adobe Reader XI over top the existing version and it seems to have resolved the issue.
