I must be doing something wrong, or maybe I'm using the wrong version of windows. My Print Dialog screen doesn't look like this.

Also, I have Acrobat Reader. That's not the full version of Acrobat is it? Would that affect my options?

I used Acrobat reader version 5.1.0 9/17/2002 on Windows 2000. The computer is a different machine than the one that have the full version. When I press the button on the toolbar with a printer on it, the exact same dialog appears.

I can only say is be sure you have the latest version of reader.

Also, I have acrobat reader on a linux machine. The print dialog looks different. but it the options to turn off the expand or shrink functions were available.

If you are still having problems, try this. When you press the print button, press the alt and prt screen buttons at the same time. That will copy a picture of the print dialog to the clip board. Then paste it in a graphic program. Paint will work. Attach it to the forums and let me see it.

If you have a little computer savvy, you can use this:

There is also this from Dr. Phillippe Marquis:

I use Dr. Marquis' program for a lot of things, though I got it as a direct download from his site a long time ago.  The mkhexgrid program I have been using lately to create poster sized prints and print them out at Kinkos.  A bit expensive but kind of cool.

S. John Ross sells a hex (pack also includes isometric and other variants) font with instructions on how to print to the scale and paper size you want, if the flexibility is worth five bucks to you, but a dedicated program feels overkill: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/m/product/220331

 

It's also very simple to overlay the font over an image using pretty much any image manipulation software you can think of, because they nearly all know about fonts.
