I am using Windows XP Pro SP2 and Acrobat Professional 7.0.9, Distiller 7.0.5. I am now trying to creat a PDF file out of an MS Office 2007 application (in this case Excel) with page size A4 (21.0cm x 29.7cm). All settings in the distiller and whereever I can find it has been set to this format. Nevertheless the created PDF file has the dimensions: 21.587cm x 27.937cm, in complete ignorance of all settings I could find and have adjusted. Is there any further 'master setting' that overrules everything?

I am trying to do something similiar with PowerPoint 2007 and Acrobat 8.1.2. I am trying to get a 7 x 8.5 page size. When I set those dimensions the end result is 6.5 x 8.0 page size. The printer said they can work with it but I decided to try setting larger page size that might result in the actual size I want. Instead I got a larger size not a smaller page size as I would have expected. I also checked Fit to Page.
Does anyone have any other ideas.
One other thing in PPT -- I have it set to print Notes pages.
