Hi I have done a very basic PCB (only one layer) with Altium, but when I'm trying to export the pdf, the obtained file has different sizes: in particular my 15x15cm circuit is expanded to the whole A4 page.
How can I export the PCB in a manner such that the defined sizes are respected?
I don't need the gerber file, since I'm going to use press n'peel to print it, I need only a proportionel and well sized pdf or image.
Thanks

In the 'Page Setup' at 'Scaling Mode' select 'Scaled Print' (instead of the default 'Fit Document on Page') and then set the Scale to 1.00
Once you've printed it, double check a couple of measurements in different areas of the board in case your printer doesn't scale perfectly enough.
