Hi,
I have a problem with saving as PDF.
Even when Imake my work so small it fits easily on the standard page (A4) in Inkscape, PDF says the size of the image is too big and will be cut off etc.
I have other PDF that are the same size or even smaller that read fine. No clue as to what causes this problem, PDF or Inkscape.
Any help would be great. I have not personalised Adobe nor Inkscape, all default.

Please attach or link to an example file... that might help us find a solution.
Have a nice day.
I'm using Inkscape 0.92.2 (5c3e80d, 2017-08-06), 64 bit win8.1
The Inkscape manual has lots of helpful info! http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/

When does it say that things will be cut off? In which program? And when you try to do what exactly?

It says so in Adobe PDF. When I try to view a PDF I just saved from Inkscape.
For now I could get around the problem by copying and pasting the wanted Inkscape work into another Inkscape file and then edit it. Then the PDF works fine
@tyler, how can I store an example svg file online? Never used anything other than wetransfer

You can click on 'Full Editor & Preview', then below the text field, select 'Attachments' and choose a file to attach. If it says that the file is too large, you may need to look into google drive, dropbox, or a similar file hoster, upload there and post the link here.
