Dear B Gillis

No, Adagio would not 'change' the print size and/or margins directly. Once you have saved the specification - these settings do not change within Adagio...however, after having said that, I have heard of sizing issues when certain Windows settings have been changed.

If you are absolutely sure that you are using the same specification that the other computers are, and you are printing to the very same printer with the same printer driver, then I would suggest checking your Windows Display properties to see if your system is using the 'Large Fonts' option. There have been a few reports where using this setting has produced weird sizing on printed documents that were created in Adagio Designer. Don't ask me why - as I had always thought that 'Display' settings meant just your display - not carried over into actual printed documents - it seems this is not so, in some isolated instances.

To check/modify this setting:
1. Click on a 'blank' area of your Windows desktop
2. Select Properties from the bottom of the sub-menu that comes up.
3. Select the Settings tab
4. Click the Advanced button
5. You should see an option somewhere on this screen for 'Font Size'. This should be set to 'Small fonts' or 'Normal' - depending on what version of Windows you are using.

Hope this helps!

Hello B Gillis,

Two other items you might check:

1. If you are printing a graphic on your cheque (logo?), are you using the same resolution on your printer (300/600/1200) DPI as the other workstations.

2. Are you using any "unusual" fonts on the cheque? If so, have these been installed on your workstation?

I am interested in seeing if we can determine what is causing this behaviour before writing it off to "Act of Windows" - oh yes, are all the workstations running the same version of Windows?
