The page size may be wrong, but the content has the correct size. I hope?!?!?!? The trick is in the printing: have them set the print scale to 100% and ignore the crop warning.

Exporting to pdf

I am having serious problems getting the pdf size correct for 3rd party users to print out to scale. I have page set to iso A3 but when it exports it comes up a slightly bigger size. I can not find any where to change these settings. As far as I can see the print size is exported correctly. Open the file to print and it has grown a fraction in size. Any suggestions?
