Try turning off the caps-lock see if that helps. jk ;)

It would help to see the photos of the print with some markings for the sizes. Make sure your grid is calibrated and measured correctly. Did you adjust the keystone adjustment on the projector?

To test you can make a cube (10mm x 10mm x 10mm), open it in contour, then go to View, Slice Preview. Then click the Project checkbox on the left side. This will start projecting the selected slice. Put a piece of paper on top of the quarts, like when you do when calibrating the grid, and measure it with a ruler. If you're getting 10mm x 10mm, then everything is setup correctly. If not, then you need to revisit the calibration instructions and make sure you didn't miss anything.

Whenever I got into such trouble, and knowing my machine is nicely calibrated.The only problem every time is a support issue.
