In file click/tap on print, Under page sizing (or page handling) click on custom size. Adjust the percentage to the size you want (eg 300), then click/tap on print to see if that works. I hope you find this helpful.

New to the forum-what is this thing about points?

You can award points to the person with the correct answer. Supposedly, people with many points are the ones that know what they're talking about. It's a newish system that a lot of us that have been around for a while don't really worry about much.

Under File>Print>Page scaling, set it to "fit to printable area".

Tried that several times-no joy.
Image is about 3/3 inches-no matter what I do.
A few things come to mind.
When I had an older version of this app, I could change the scale.
Have versn. 9 now and I'm stuck with the original size.
I'll check with the sender maybe he can explain the problem.
Tried the Adobe phone help and they will be happy to work with me for $39 fat chance what a rip off!
If I get a chance, I'll send a snail mail to Adobe and tell them what I think of Versn. 9
The forum site (forum.adobe.com) says it has a security problem and hasn't been able to accept any new posts-WTF?
Just as well-I ain't much of a forum guy anyhow.
Thanks for your help-it's time for me to move on.
