Hello,
Fairly new to Publisher and a bit ignorant, so apologies in advance.
I have recently used it to design a one page tabloid sized poster for printing on our Toshiba copier.
To date, I have never had any problems printing posters of any size from either programs like Word, or from JPGs or PDFs designed with services like Canva and then exported to my computer.
I designed the poster in Publisher but no matter what I do I keep getting the same bizarre white border around it (see attached), with the border being thicker on the right and top than the left and bottom. It is as if the margins of the document are out of whack. I know that our printer doesn't do edge-to-edge printing, and that's fine, all posters always have some white border, but they are always even.
At first I thought it was because the document was set up as the first page in a spread, and when I turned off preview mode, I could see that the margins were aligned as if Publisher was expecting more pages, and I was making my poster on the first right-hand page in the series. I changed that so the margins all align only to this page (if you know what I mean).
I also thought that this may be a problem with Affinity jiving with the printer drivers, but even when I export to a PDF, PNG, or JPG from Publisher, and print from "preview" on my Mac, the weird margins persist, which makes me think that it is something I have not changed or properly setup in Affinity and the problem is being exported with it. This problem happens no matter the paper size I try to print with.
I have done searches for similar problems and threads but haven't found anything that addresses this specifically.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Any help would be most appreciated.
