I seem to have trouble after I convert the files printing them so that they are legible. I am converting a bunch of 11 x 17 dwg files to pdf. They convert fine but when I print them as pdfs the font shrinks and the page shrinks some as well so that they become very difficult to read. Is there a setting or something that needs to be changed? I have gotten pdfs (converted by someone else) from the same files which print perfectly well. I assume it is a setting on my end I just do not know which one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In addition, when the original drawing files are in color, when they are converted to pdf they either come out very light or, if I check to print color as black, it looks like there are two sets of letters. Any help before this drives me to drinking would be appreciated.
