  • Unwanted White border around picture

    Posted by Drachor on October 14, 2007 at 10:12 pm

    I am just an occasional user of Indesign as may be obvious from my question.
    I have a picture that I am using as a background to a flyer. On the screen the picture covers the entire document but when I print the document there is a white border all the way around it. How do I get rid of this. In other words why doesn’t the picture print all the way to the edge of the paper.

    Thank You

    That is a physical limitition of your printer. Ink can not print to the edge so the gripper can grab the paper, and also so that ink doe s not go off the edge dirty the roller and foul the inside of your printer.

    You will have to either print to a larger piece of paper and cut it down.
