MicroStation PowerDraft v8i printing A3 pages 16 meter wide where they should be 420 mm wide.

When I print to pdf from Microstation PowerDraft V8i the pdf is about 16 meters wide where it should be 420 mm wide. Anyone know where i can fix this issue so that my measurements on the pdf is in accordance to my MS drawing scale?

  • I use V8i which should be similar settings  to you so control P and open the pltcfg your using ie  pfd.pltcfg  it should have paper sizes and just edit the size there and save... restart msnt and try again... if your using a virtual pdf driver  from windows then stop using it use the bentley supplied one and modify a copy to suit your needs..
