One of the things I use ps for is to create special event photo memory boxes. I collage all the photos in ps and then take a round or oval box and then do the physical lacquer routine to cover the box with the trimmed ps document.
Anyway, I normally scan the actual lid of the box to use as my template in creating. The template never turned out to be the actual size and I would always have to make adjustments. I figured it was something between scanner, program etc.
Tonight I am making a large round box of 10" diameter. So I set my elipse tool to a fixed measurement of 10" by 10" with no feathering and when I print it out, it actually measures 9 3/8.
Long way around to get to the question, but wanted you to understand the final use of my question.
So why is 10" only 9 3/8"?
EDIT Forgot to say that I am using a document size of tabloid (11×17) in PS and printing with 11×17 paper with printer also set to that document size—so it’s not a matter of "downsizing" to fit.
