Hi All,

As you know, margins can be cut off from the bottom of a document, depending on the printers people use. For example, on my printer, 0.6" bottom margin is fine, but on my client's printer, the footer is cut off.

In the PDF, there is plenty of physical space. I advised my client that when he prints the PDF, to make sure Shrink to Printable Area is selected when printing the page, and it will come out fine.

Question: He is wondering if we need to give the users instructions in the MANUAL for printing the PDF.

I have never done this before. I've printed tons of PDFs and never had a question come back to our service groups (when I worked for a company) about the footer NOT printing...

What do you think?

Deborah
