I have been using VW2023 SP8. Just updated to 2024 but have not had a chance to check this issue. I create a sheet layer in ARCH D and 1/4" = 1'-0". (probably doesn't matter but it is entertainment - scenic and lighting). I print to PDF so I can take the file to a plotter at the school. The person there prints it for me, I've asked them to ensure they are using "Actual Size" and not "Fit". It's always off, about 6" every 25'. I don't use the export to PDF because for some reason it has a tendency to drop some graphics (like images of gobos in the file).
Is this something known about or am I or the printer person doing something wrong?
