I’m using a script method to print direct from Acrobat CC, but it’s ignoring the ‘don’t shrink’ setting.

I’ve downloaded the script guide, but according to it, my setting it to false should work.

Any guidance please, or a link to something that makes sense?

I’ve also found a way to alter the Illustrator problem I posted yesterday, reduced the time from 14 minutes to 1 second (posted below)

my Acrobat script

tell application "Adobe Acrobat"

activate

do shell script ("sleep 0.1")

set CountOfPages to count of pages of active doc

do script "

var pp = this.getPrintParams();

pp.NumCopies = 1;

pp.bShrinkToFit = false;

pp.firstPage = 1;

pp.lastpage = " & CountOfPages & ";

pp.TileOverlap = 36;

pp.TileLarge = true;

pp.setPageSize = '" & largePaperSize & "';

pp.printerName = '" & theLargePagePrinter & "';

pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.silent;

this.print(pp);"

end tell
