I suggest that you open one of the PDF files that you've created via save as PDF and use the Inspector to look at the page size. A4 scaled to fit is 91% on my current printer, while US letter is 96% (it's not 100% because Scale to Fit assumes that the document should fit within the printer's margins, in case the content goes all the way to the edge of the PDF). If I choose "Scale to Fit" in Preview, I can tell the difference between an A4 and a US letter document by the different scale that Preview uses. Preview does not use the document's image size as a basis for choosing what paper to use. In other words, it is trying to print an A4 document on US letter paper because that's what I have specified as the default paper size. However, if I then open the document in Preview and choose Print, it will default to printing on my default paper size. ![]() Which application are you using? On my Mac (MacBook Pro/Retina running 10.8.2), if I open a document in Word or Pages, use Page Setup to format it as A4, and then Save as PDF, the resulting PDF document is formatted as A4.
