Found the answer in another thread.
Make the figure invisible before setting it's size with
set(fig, 'visible', 'off')

have you tried setting the outerposition bigger than the screensize?
full screen:
figure('units','normalized','outerposition',[0 0 1 1]);
twice sceensize:
figure('units','normalized','outerposition',[0 0 2 2]);

I tried:
function printpdf(h,outfilename)
set(h, 'PaperUnits','centimeters');
set(h, 'Units','centimeters');
pos=get(h,'Position');
set(h, 'PaperSize', [pos(3) pos(4)]);
set(h, 'PaperPositionMode', 'manual');
set(h, 'PaperPosition',[0 0 pos(3) pos(4)]);
print('-dpdf',outfilename);
I have made an script, and sometimes it plot it with the desired size and sometimes it is cut.
