Important note about printing pdfs
Most printers default to print pdf files within the printable area of the page. This effectively means that pdf files are automatically scaled down to fit the page. In order to print our display resources at the correct size you will need to choose ‘page setup’ and select the appropriate page scaling options (either ‘None’ or ‘100%’ depending on the application and printer you are using).
