Print Preview Header and Footer Scaling with Page

Hi everyone, 

I'm experiencing an issue with JMP 17.2.0.

I am trying to save a JMP report as a PDF with headers and footers using the variables for window title, page number, page count, and current date. In Print Preview, when scaling the report to fit on one-page, the headers and footers seemingly scale inversely, getting bigger while the actual report content gets smaller. In the screenshot below, the preview on the right is scaled 100% and the left is been shrunk to fit one-page. Whatever is causing this behaviour is clearly effecting the margins, going so far as to push the footer off the bottom of the page.

When I Export or Save As the report as a PDF then I get the same scaling being applied to the headers and footers as the report. In the screenshot below, the preview on the right is scaled 100% and the left is been manually scaled to fit one-page. This is technically better since the headers and footers are both still on the page after scaling to fit one-page but I feel the scaling shouldn't be applied to the headers/footers at all, only the report content.

I was able to test this using JMP Pro 19.1.4 and didn't encounter this issue at all, in either the Print Preview platform or with Export or Save As, both of which have improved GUI for scaling report to print. 

Is this a known issue with my version of JMP 17.2.0? 

Kind regards, 

Cathal
