kmdk Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I use on Windows10 and macOS 10.15.1 and the latest versions of affinity designer. when I export a DIN A5 Artboard to a print file in 300 dpi, the size of the document will be showed later in the properties of the pdf-Viewer more than the size in affinity designer. for example: I create the DIN A5 artboard in the size 210 mm x 148 mm. in the properties of the file document I give 1mm around all sides for the cutting in the printing factory. so I must have a total size from 150 mm x 212 mm. BUT equal with which System (Windows or macOS) I export the document file, I became after opening the file with macOS a total size from 150,1 mm x 212,1 mm. when I open the same file with Windows 10, the size is correct. when I want to load up the file from macOS to a printing company, they don't accept the file (wrong size). from a windows system it works!!?? I don't know, where the mistake is... two screenshots for bettet understanding... best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebproduct Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) Same here. Regardless of the document type, dimensions, etc. I create, after the export from AD the pdf will always have 1 mm wrong on one or both sides (opened it in Preview on Mac). macOS Mojave 10.14.6 Affinity Designer 1.7.3 best regards Edited December 11, 2019 by ebproduct added screenshots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
