i don't think mine is printer drivers. at some point in my tweaking i got
the borders to be perfect top and bottom but left to right was always either
too narrow or too wide. the same problem existed/exists on 3 separate
printers, 2 HP and 1 Lexmark.
the document in question is a "save as" from a successfully printed work
with a perfect page border. i messed around with the original and only
managed make it worse and could not reproduce how it came to be perfect in
the first place. i'm sure someone on this list had the answer but it was 18
months or more ago i believe. the document is a family history of about 270
pages and there is only 1 page with a page border.
in the end, we're printing all to PDF for publication anyway so no matter.
still, it's one of those annoying little issues...rather like a sore tooth
you just can't stop poking at.
