Be sure to measure the printout before trusting it. Due to variations in printers and such I've yet to get a printout that was actually accurate. I usually end up just taking the measurements and using a mm rule to transfer them manually since I can't get a printout to come out accurately enough for my wishes.
Really? Mine from Fretfind were spot on. But I do doublecheck at the octave/12th fret, to be sure I didn't enter the wrong data or whatnot.

Yeah, I tried a couple of different printers and a number of different settings in my print dialogs...but never got a printout to come out that measured as accurately as I wanted. It was close and probably "good enough" but I was trying to see how accurate I could get and how good I could get the intonation on my last build and I could be considerably more accurate with a ruler than the printouts came out.

@Jason
Even if the printouts scale fractionally during printing, the frets relative distance wouldnt change. It would just go from 24.5 inch scale to a 24.48675 scale or whatever. It shouldnt be a problem as long as you mount the bridge after the neck.
