Bob,
If you get a track of the Wolf Catalog the pictures are full size with regard to their parts. Which trigger are you looking at?  I can measure from my catalog. I actually found two types of triggers in my parts box. One is the  Dst-4  the functional height of the trigger in unset mode is 1/2"  This can very depending on how tight you make the main spring screw.  The actual height of the trigger when set is 3/8" measuring from the surface of the plate to the top of the two blades in set position.  Hope this helps.

To determine if the triggers have sufficient height to actuate the sear, push the rear trigger forward with your thumb, and pull the front trigger backwards until you form an "X" where they intersect.  You'll notice that it is very close to the adjustment screw.  Lay this on your blue-print (you have a blue-print - right?) and you'll be able to see if the relationship is going to work, of if the set needs to be inlet further, or if they are too high.
