Bill,
I'm just guessing... but it sounds like something to do with your page size in the PRTF.
We had a similar issue in that the document printed fine, but when viewed as PDF it was "shifted" over and down.
The PAGESIZE was 198... we dropped it to 135 (minimum for our text) and that fixed the problem.
Also, we have a logo image in the top left... so we have FRONTMGN(0 0) so that it doesn't get offset by the "unprintable" area.
Hope that helps.
Greg

Subject: [EXTERNAL] AFP forms question
Hello all,
I'm wondering if this is a common problem with an easy solution. We have quite a few forms (invoices, purchase orders, etc.) that are set up as AFP forms. When we print the forms on a regular printer connected to the system, the overall size of the form is fine, but if we view it via ACS as a PDF, it's as if it shrinks to 75% size. Is there a really easy explanation for this that I'm just not aware of? Some setting that we may not be using that would make this not shrink when viewed as a PDF? All input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Bill
