[Qgis-user] Scale on printed pdf is incorrect

[Antongeo76]

Hi Flore,

I just did a test on a 1: 2000 scale map I printed from QGIS 2.18.24

in QGIS (whit snap active) the measurement between two points is 67.658 m, 
on the pdf the same measurement (without snap) is 33.802mm.
The difference is only 0.027mm and is probably due to the absence of a snap
in the pdf reader.

Regards

Antonio
