People act like PDF is a bad thing. If it meets your needs, you certainly
should use it until DWF meets your needs. If your process involves using a
DWG with AutoCAD, generating a DWF and sending it to someone who has DWF
Composer, who marks up the DWF, sends it back, and then the original DWG is
updated based on the DWF, then you do have a legitimate roadblock. But since
this is a print to fit page issue, my guess is that you are using a
paper-based process (hopefully printed using Oce equipment). The 999% zoom
limitation has been acknowledged as a bug. I am guessing it will get the
attention it deserves in the next release. My fear is that update will be
too late for your needs. With 32 bit integers, the data points can only be
scaled so far. My guess is that 999% was picked for a reason.
