I think CFDOCUMENT Is scaling your document to fit, thus once you go over the page width, it says can't fit that on, so I'll scale it all down.

Once it hits 20pt the font sizes are off by 1. ie: html: 20pt - pdf: 21pt html: 21pt - pdf: 22pt etc. And if I try it with margins of 2cm, the fonts go very wrong, very quickly. ie: html: 10pt - pdf: 13pt html: 20pt - pdf: 27pt html: 50pt - pdf: 66pt I've checked the created PDF files with both plug-in tools for Acrobat Pro as well as 3rd party PDF-specific font extraction tools and they're all giving the same info. Picking different fonts, both TrueType and Adobe Built-in, from the CF Font Management screen, as well as setting fontembed="yes" all yield errors. Only the starting point differs. Environments: W2003 - CFMX 7,0,1,116466 W2k - 7,0,2,142559 (coldfusion-70-updater2-win.exe) Is cfdocument acting under HTML's "near enough's good enough" philosophy, or is it something I can fix?
