Hello,

I've noticed that the images included with externalfigure appear at about 95% of their specified size on a printed page.  The example below can be compiled on contextgarden to replicate the behavior.  This problem is nothing new and has existed for at least a couple of months.  Is there something that I'm not specifying correctly, or it this a bug?

Thanks,
Mike


\starttext
\placefigure{6.0in x 3.0in}{
  \externalfigure[blah.jpg][width=6.0in, height=3.0in]
  % Comes out 5.6in x 2.8in
}
\placefigure{15.0cm x 9cm}{
  \externalfigure[blah.jpg][width=15.0cm, height=9cm]
  % Comes out 14.1cm x 8.45cm
}
\stoptext

Try turning off the "fit to printer margins" in the Acroread print
dialog.

Best wishes,
Taco
