Acrobat Printing of Slides - 11X17 slides truncate

[Guest]

I've been fooling with this for a week. Does anyone know why a powerpoint
slide, which prints okay on 11X17 inch paper from Powerpoint to any printer,
and is properly displayed as 11X17 on the open ppt file gets truncated on the
right side when printing to acrobat distiller OR PDFmaker? Print Preview is
fine, output to laser printer or Deskjet is fine, but the PDF file just cuts
off. Thanks in advance.

Use the Document, Crop Pages command in Acrobat (it might be located elsewhere
depending on your Acrobat version). Set cropping to 0 all around ... that
usually recovers what Acrobat has made invisible for reasons of its own.
