-Printing PDFs

Am I the only one that is trying to print PDF files and notices that viewing the page looks perfect and printing the page reduces the page by some default margin...even though I had changed the default new document margins to 0" and printer page scaling set to NONE. This quirk becomes worse when printing a PDf with bates numbers! With bates numbers, the page printed gets reduced even more, as the bates number is included as an addition to the image area. Is it possible to print a PDF file without Acrobat reducing the page when you ask it not to???

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8, Windows

Depends on your printer...

Some printers (and their drivers) impose a HARDWARE margin, thus limiting the actual printable area on the page.

Try a different printer and see if the problem still exists.
