Hi,

 

>> the paper size is different from the preview

Does that happen also when you select a different output device like "DWG to PDF.pc3"?

Try to use the "EXTENTS" (étendue) to fit your objects to the paper instead of the window (fenêtre).  With the plot scale at 1:1 your window is too big vertically for the paper size chosen.

 

Plotting with the print emulator "DWG to PDF" may be a good solution so that you can choose one of the "full-bleed" paper sizes (basically no margins), however a hardcopy will eventually need to have at least a minimal margin.  Must also be careful when printing from PDF to ensure that you do not scale the pdf to target paper.  Acrobat typically has "scale to fit" set by default and many users miss that when they print.
