Shrinking output when printing 2 up.

I have spent a couple hours on this and I am getting some wierd results.

I have set a custom template to 5.5 wide by 8.5 tall, half a letter size page. I format everything, then I want to print 2 to a page.

Which would be 11 wide by 8.5 in landscape. I get the 2 two a page, and it is in landscape, but it looks like it has shrunk anywhere from 10 to 20%. I have giant margins all around the page, but the View on the screen shows all the same words, same page breaks in place as what is printed. I do not get these kind of problems of shrinkage when I straight print.

Any ideas?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.6)
