Page Clipping...

[Ocean West]

OSX (jaguar) and FMP 6.0.4 Printing to HP 8150dn when printing the it won't print about .625 of an inch at the bottom it cut's it off every time. I have the print driver setup to edge-to-edge printing but that dosen't seem to matter.

When previewing the file even the PDF of it cuts it off as well. the other three edges seem fine at .250 just the bottom is messing up.

any one else have this issue? Any Solutions?

Actually, the bottom margin is 0.55 in, which corresponds to the standard bottom margin for most inkjet printers.

I haven't figured out a fix for direct printing either. But if you go to Page Setup and create a custom paper size, you can save as PDF and get the full sheet -- or at least to within 0.25in, which is all I've tried so far.

I've been fighting this problem for a while with no luck. I use a Lexmark Optra laser printer which is perfectly capable of printing my letterhead footer at the bottom of the page, but no matter what I try, FM refuses to save the correct Page Setup settings in the print script. Instead, it apparently always does a Page Setup with the standard page size of the "Any Printer" PPD, which means my footer gets cut off. I can save the proper "Lexmark A4" page setup information for Windows and for Mac OS 9, but no luck in OS X.

Any ideas, anyone?

Yeah, it's an OSX bug. Maybe they'll have it fixed by the time they release OSXI, or whatever they'll call it.
