Paul...

I think the larger number is the total size of the PDF… white border and all…

I think Steve_g has it right.

If you look at the distance the vectors are from the X origin when you open the PDF (14.264mm) make this allowance for both 'ends' add the length of the model = 2439.106mm = 96.03 inch.

Sincerely and in good faith

Just curious… what’s the correct size?

Is there a bounding box around the part.
