Hi everyone

My printer is Epson 2100, when I set the A4 borderless printing, the paper lost about 1 inch content
so I came up with my work round by using the x y position print setting in Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator, It works!

but when I get to PC, the Acrobat is my best printing solution since the font embed feature, but I can't find the x y position setting as I use in PS and AI in it

Is there anyone can help me out, thanks

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro Extended 9.3.1, Windows

The CS print dialog panel isn't used in Acrobat, so I'm afraid those positioning fields just don't exist. There are plugins that perform "imposition" - arranging multiple pages for booklets etc - that would be able to achieve the same effect, but not very efficiently.

Don't know it this will help with your situation; still, it is something to try.

Play with the configuration within the Epson device's properties dialog.
You may be able to achieve borderless hardcopy output when printing a PDF.

I performed a simple trial using an Epson Stylus Photo R800.
I was able to print out a 'borderless' page (content at the sheet edge).

In authoring application (I used a trial FrameMaker file) -
Establish a zero margin "page".
Lay down the content you are mastering.
Output a PDF.

Open PDF in Acrobat/Adobe Reader.
Print the PDF (File > Print)
In Print dialog, select the Epson device.
Use the Properties button to get into the Epson device's properties dialog.
Under the Main Tab - ought to be a selection box for "Borderless".
Click the "?" (upper right) then the "Borderless" box - read the pop-up content.

In my trial run I had to select a media "Type" that would accept 'Borderless'.
With that done, I printed to standard paper (letter size).

Be well...
