When you get a pattern from quilterscache you need to save it as a PDF before you print it when using a MAC.

when you hit 'command print' in the bottom left side you should see a ? PDF Preview Cancel Print

click on PDF & scroll down to 'save as PDF' This will put the pattern on your desktop. (Cancel this print option.) Go to the desktop and open the PDF file you saved of the pattern. Hit 'command print' & then print. It should be the correct size now.

Hope this is clear - if not maybe SIL can translate.
