Thanks in advance for your help!

I am having issues with upgrading an application to CF8. The application
primarily produces pdf with specific layouts, fonts, and images. When
upgrading to CF8, the layout of the pages is very different. Essentially,
everything is smaller (font, images, spacing, etc.) creating very large margins
on the left and bottom of the page. Is there some setting or tag I can use to
keep the pdf page layout the same as in CF7 as there are hundreds of cf
templates that could be affected.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

cheers,
-sutton

Hi Sutton,

We have recently fixed a similar issue and released it as a hotfix. Can you try CHF8000001 - http://www.adobe.com/go/kb402466 and let me know?

Thanks,
Hemant

Yes - this helped marvelously. The only other thing I have noticed (other than
the PDFs being produced faster), is that there are occasionally extra blank
pages being produced here and there, but I presume it has something to do with
the way I am coding page breaks.

Thanks for your help!

cheers,
