PCB scaled down
933 2
Hello EasyEDA users! I want to do my PCB at home. I have done its design with EasyEDA. My problem is that when I export the PCB file into PDF file, it's scaled down : for example, the distance 30,48 mm between two holes in the design becomes around 27,5 mm when it's printed out. While exporting the file, I set the scale to 1:1. Thank you for your answers!

It exports correctly, never had problems. I've made many PCB's at home and used the printouts as templates for case holes and stuff. Usually the problem is during printing, where the setup is. Make sure that you have the correct paper size and there is no scaling being done. Either use Actual size or Custom with 100% scale. Make sure you open the PDF before printing otherwise it does whatever it wants, too. ![Screenshot_1.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/aVrpzeIs452oia905VBFrTDnS1ySmyd8sV3ew7RD.png) Here I have one of my PCB's: [https://easyeda.com/editor#id=008c00dfad3446bb92ceaae9ba0aa054](https://easyeda.com/editor#id=008c00dfad3446bb92ceaae9ba0aa054) I measure one side: ![img1.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/QGthA8TbZRCUsis9Ax8ftnusCdD4PtYGIsbJ8rdM.png) Then export the PCB for etching and use that PDF to use an online PDF measuring tool: ![img2.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/RqsN7ukeq70WtAd0STPmzCapkXl0Y6ZmIMbfzKpz.png) Try a few times, see how it works out. Good luck with the PCB, really good knowledge to be able to make your own PCB's at home in an hours time!
