Can anyone help me, everytime someone sends me a PDF attachment adobe reader on my work computer and I print it off , it comes out really tiny, like the whole document has shrunk by 75%. I've tried altering the + to 180% or more but it makes no difference at all to the printing. It means when I have to fill in a form and scan it back to the sender, its a tiny size and makes me look a bit dumb...lol I know its probably something really simple to rectify this but my technology knowledge is limited to basics.
Any help much appreciated.

Once you have re-sized it to 180%, then save it as a new PDF file. Try filling the new one in and scan that. Hopefully that should work.

Otherwise, your scanner settings may be reducing it in size.

Thanks Slack, will try that
When you go to File > Print (or press Ctrl & P together), don't just click 'OK'.

Instead click on 'Properties'. Exactly what you'll see at that stage depends upon the make & model of your printer but you're looking for a 'fit to page' option. (I get to it with my printer by going to the 'Page setup' tab). Select that option and click 'OK'.

You should then get a full-sized pdf printed out.

In your Acrobat print box there is an option that says scaling.

Set that to None rather than fit to print.
