Howto change left/right margin when print

In a report we defined a left margin of 2 cm and a right margin of 1 cm.
When printing the report simplex everything is ok.
But when printing the report duplex we want to change the margins. Odd pages should print "normal" - but the page on the back, i.e. even pages, should then be "moved" to the left. That means the left margin has to be 1 cm and the right margin 2 cm.
How can we achieve this behavior?

Hi Rainer
For information on settings for Duplex printing please refer to the below link:

Hope this helps!!

thanks
i also found solution for my poblem:
i have this code:
jMenuItem jMnItEdit;
jMnItEdit.setAccelerator( KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0));
also i had ActionListener bounded to this JMenuItem
but Ialso had in form JTable and it always grabbed my VK_ENTER event and that menu item wasn't working at all
but when i overrode that input map for JTable and set
tableInputMap.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0, false), "none");
everything started to work perfectly,
thanks a lot

Changing the page margins when printing

I have searched this forum and have not found an answer.
I am trying to print my resume, which is a web page, to a PDF. The default makes the page margins too narrow for my taste but no matter what I do, I cannot seem to change it. I tried to define a new paper format with a letter size and larger margins but that does not appear to make any difference at all.
It works in FireFox but the imbedded hot-links do not work like they work in Safari. Anyone have a solution?
Paul

I had done that, defined a paper with wider margins, but I had not logged out and back in. Well, now I not only made my new sheet definition using the instructions, but I made it the default paper in the Print & Fax system preference, logged out and back in, and then even tried restarting. Safari (and interestingly all other applications) default to the standard letter size with standard margins even though my custom page with the custom margins shows as the default in Print & Fax. Sheesh!
Does anyone know of another browser that you can print to a PDF and the hotlinks within the document will remain good? They do not with Firefox.

Cannot change the print margins when printing out my spreadsheet. Tried clicking on format and then Document but when I enter a number I always get " invalid number".

I cannot change the margins when printing out my spreadsheet. I clicked on the format then on document and got a entry box. But everytime I try entering a number to change the left margin ( tried .5 ) I get an " invalid number " response. I can print out the spreadsheet but always get a message telling me the margins may be too small and data may be clipped. Data doesn't get clipped but left part of the spreadsheet is right at the left side of the paper. Want to change the margin so I don't get that message.

Naming the spreadsheet app would do wonders for getting an answer.

Remove left and right margin when display portlets

What is the best way to remove the left and right margin when display portlets?
I found a file called \portalpages\dotnet\prod\src\com\plumtree\portalpages\browsing\myportal\/
MyPortalContentView.cs
But I do not see a place for the left and right margins. What is the correct place to modify these margins? (How about the top and bottom margins too?)
See the green highlight?

That's it yeah, seems to curve upwards at the sides. Dunno whether leaving a heavy book on it might sway it back into position?!
I had the display upgraded when I bought it so presumed it could have been done whilst 'in operation'. Apart from that there's nothing wrong with it really, doubt it's something they would take it back on anyway.

Left & Right Margin from Top to Bottom

Friends,
I want Left & Right Margin (Line) from top to bottom even if there is a single item in the Repetitive area. Problem is that when there are less items there is always a gap between Repetitive Area/End of Report & Footer.

Uday Shankar

Hi,
We have also tried to the same requirement. But we can't.
Only one thing we can do is, the end report can be set at the bottom with the property of "Align to bottom". But the Horizonal, vertical lines and grid not fills from the last item to end of report beginning.
I think this is most required to view the document perfectly or neatly.
Particularly in indian localization this is the must since the customer need to be declared the specific neat format to the legal departments.
Hope SAP Support should solve the issue. But I am wondering this question has been posted many times by many people but unfotunately nobody I think get the solution.
Thanks & Regards,

How to change annotation's appearance when printing the annotation under Adobe Reader?

I'm developping a plugin under SDK 7.0 for Adobe Reader . I have two problems.
1)I will change annotation's appearance when printing the annotation. How to do under Adobe Reader?
Uunder Adobe Arobat,I use PDRegisterAnnotHandler to register GetPrintAppearance,but PDRegisterAnnotHandler does not work under Adobe Reader.
2)Under Adobe Reader ,app.execMenuItem doesnt work.How to execute menuItem using JavaScript under Adobe Reader?
Please Help,had better give me sample,thank.

app.execMenuItem most certainly does work with Reader - what problems are you running into trying to use it?
As for developing Reader plug-ins - yes, some of the SDK methods aren't available to Reader. If you want to change the appearance of an annotation in Reader, you would need to acquire the Cos object of that annotation and modify its appearance dictionary manually.

A way to reduce margins when printing multiple pages per sheet?

I really like the new leopard print dialog box. Is there a way of reducing the large margins when printing 2, 4, or more pages per sheet (in Layout)?

You could use custom page sizes (in the Page Setup dialog) or you could see if the settings in the Paper Handling panel help at all.

How do I remove top and bottom margins when printing using Adobe Acrobat XI Standard.

How do I remove top and bottom margins when printing using Adobe Acrobat XI Standard. (I selected 'Fit to scale' and there's a huge gap on the top and bottom).

Those margins are usually reported from the printer settings to Acrobat. Meansif you have, for example, an inkjet printer and that printer can not print seamlessly, then there will be a minimum margin.
Check your printer's page settings.

It sounds like either the font is corrupted or your AddressBook prefs are whacked.
You can check the font in FontBook > File> Validate Fonts, or in /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist move it to the desktop and restart.

Set margins when printing

I have problems to set the margins for printing..
I set margins in this way:
when I start the printing process I do:
        PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
        final Stamp canvas = new Stamp();
        job.setPrintable(canvas);
        MediaPrintableArea area = new MediaPrintableArea(10, 10, 170, 255, MediaPrintableArea.MM);
        HashPrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
        aset.add(area);
        if (job.printDialog()) { // chiede conferma definitiva
            try {
                job.print(aset);
            } catch (PrinterException ex) {
                Logger.getLogger(Stampa_Try_For_PreciseLocation.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }in the canvas class I try to read the margins :
public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pageFormat, int pageIndex) {
        if (pageIndex >= 1) {
            return Printable.NO_SUCH_PAGE;
        Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
        g2.translate(pageFormat.getImageableX(), pageFormat.getImageableY());
        AffineTransform at = new AffineTransform();
        at.scale(pageFormat.getImageableWidth(), pageFormat.getImageableHeight());
        g2.transform(at);
        double pageWidth = pageFormat.getWidth();
        double pageHeight = pageFormat.getHeight();
        double pageSpUsedX = pageFormat.getImageableX();
        double pageSpUsedY = pageFormat.getImageableY();
        double pageSpUsedWidth = pageFormat.getImageableWidth();
        double pageSpUsedHeight = pageFormat.getImageableHeight();
        System.out.print("larghezza pg = " + pageWidth);
        System.out.println(" ; altezza pg = " + pageHeight);
        System.out.print ("area usabile X = " + pageSpUsedX);
        System.out.println(" ; area usabile Y = " + pageSpUsedY);
        System.out.print("area usabile larghezza = " + pageSpUsedWidth);
        System.out.println(" ; area usabile altezza = " + pageSpUsedHeight);
        g2.drawString("x as", (float)pageSpUsedX                         , (float)pageSpUsedY);
        g2.drawString("x ad", (float)pageSpUsedX + (float)pageSpUsedWidth, (float)pageSpUsedY);
        g2.drawString("x bs", (float)pageSpUsedX                         , (float)pageSpUsedY + (float)pageSpUsedHeight);
        g2.drawString("x bd", (float)pageSpUsedX+ (float)pageSpUsedWidth , (float)pageSpUsedY + (float)pageSpUsedHeight);
                return Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;
    }But the result is not what I expected to be....
I am working at a program that have to print 'something' on paper's labels
placed in a normal sheet format A4.
and for this purpose it is very important to have the contrlo where the letters are wrote..
I don't know what it is wrong and I need some help..
thank you in advance..

tomyMrsangelo

hi Andre,
thank you to answering me,
I tried with your code but still I have not the control that I would have printing.
Perhaps I misunderstand the role and the means of the parameters used for set the printable
area.......
For example.. when I set the margins in this way:
MediaPrintableArea area = new MediaPrintableArea(10, 10, 170, 255, MediaPrintableArea.MM);
I expect to have one area printable with the shape of a rectangle that, on a sheet of
paper A4 format, begin in the corner up to left in the point (5, 10) and have a horizontal size
of 180 millimeters and a vertical size of 265 millimeters.
But this is not happen..., I measured the horizontal side in 150 millimeters (instead 170) and
the vertical size in 248 millimeters (instead 255)....
Measuring the coords of the corner on top to left, I got (5, 13) and not (10, 10).
.....I tried with other values of parameters and never I got the exact values that I expected to have.
Having to print labels glued on a paper sheet - A4 format,
*I need to be sure that when the statement
g2.drawString("x", 0, 0);
is executed
The character x is wrote, on the paper, at the point 10, 10. *
Perhaps
g2.drawString("+", 0, 0);
is not the right operation to get this target..... ????

Margins when printing handouts.

When printing a handout from slides is there a way to increase the margins? Keynote prints the slides (and rules if you use them) almost right out to the edge of the page. I couldn't find anything on this in the help file.
Thanks.

To set a custom margin, you need to create a custom paper size. To do this, go into Page Setup, and under Paper Size choose Manage Custom Sizes. In the new dialog, click the plus sign at the bottom left to create a new size. Set the paper size to whatever you want (it should be 8.5X11" for letter, of course), and then set the margins to the size you need. Once you click the OK button, this paper size will now be available to choose in the Page Setup dialog.

Why can't I change the right margin in Pages?

I am using Pages 5.5.2 under OS Yosemite 10.10.2 on an iMac. I chose "Informal Letter" as the style, because I am trying to write a SIMPLE letter. It says the right margin is set to 0.5 inches, but the program WILL NOT allow the text to go beyond 6.5 inches. I have turned on the ruler and when I click in the paragraphs there is a blue upside down triangle in the upper ruler showing the limit of the text. If I click on that I can move it to the left, but it WILL NOT let me move it to the right. It forces the text to end at 6.5 inches from the left margin leaving a huge blank area on the right side of the page. This is ridiculous! In WORD it is extremely easy to move the right margin to the limits of the printer. Why won't Pages allow me to move the text limit of the line past the 6.5 inch mark?
HELP!

Hi Bush,
what you suggested does not work. I set the right margin to 0 in the Documents settings, but still can only move the blue triangle to the left.
Yes, I agree that there is a bug in the Informal Letter template.
Peter wrote:
Better to create your own template from the Blank template or use one of the other templates.
A hint that might help you (in templates other than Informal Letter)
My advice is the same as Peter's. Give up on the Informal Letter template and create your own template from Blank in Template Chooser:
You will find that Document Margins and Insets on the Ruler actually work!

HP Officejet Pro 8620 Shifted Margins when printing

The only problem I find when printing paper is that the margins are always shifted. The margins of the paper on my PC display Is different to when Officejet Pro 8620 prints the paper. I tried printing with borderless on, but the margins are either to close to the top of the paper; I also tried printing with borderless off, but the margins shifts way below compared to the paper on the computer display. My older printer HP Officejet 4500 wireless has a "minimize margins" option, and the printer always prints exactly as it is on the display; however, it is no so with my newer Pro printer. I tried going to advanced options and clicking on preserve layout, which is available only when doing 2-sided printing, and the margins were still shifted; there are pictures on the bottom that can show you. I looked around preference options of the printer, paper setup, printer properties, tried readjusting settings, but the problem is persisting. I do not want to go any further, or else I might screw everything up. Additionally, the problem is not with the copy settings of the printer, I looked there too and the margin shift is turned off. Please help me find a solution. I use this printer to print books, and I need to finish it ASAP, thank you for your support Printed Paper Page 1: Printed paper margins are shifted slightly higher, compared to PC display paper   Printed Paper Page 2: Printed paper margins are shifted down, compared to PC display paper   Paper Displayed on Computer: Observe the top margin distance from the top of the screen

For the first question: Yes, when I print multiple page copies in 1-sided or 2-sided format it makes margin shifts. 1-sided printing margin is shifted down for all pages. 2-sided printing margin shifts up for odd pages and shifts down for even pages.This would mean it's something in the hardware that is causing the shifting.  HP regularly releases firmware updates that may help. You can click on this link to Get Printer Updates for HP Officejet Pro. I would also check for crumpled paper inside the printer. All of the steps can be found here, but I copied the main step for you. Check the carriage path for obstructions with a flashlight;Place your fingers into the slot on the left side of the printer, and then pull to open the cartridge access door. The carriage moves into the access area. Wait until the carriage is idle and silent before you continue.Disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer, and then unplug the power cord from the power source or electrical outlet.Use a flashlight to check for torn pieces of paper that might remain inside the printer.
  I would then clean the paper feed rollers, steps copied from this document.Follow these steps to clean the paper pick rollers.Place your fingers in the slot on the front of Tray 1.

How can I change a layout margin to print?

Many thanks for the last bit of info. However, I designed a card to have .5" margins all round, but the right margin on the layout shows an extra 1/8th of an inch greater on the right margin than the .5" margin showing everywhere else. Why can I not change this margin. I designed a greeting card with a border on both sides of the card, and they don't match cause I can't change this one right side margin. I have looked on all the layout menus to see if there is a reason and just cannot find it. Any clues?

I'm not sure if you're doing this in landscape view, but that could explain it. Many printers, especially ink jets, have a bigger bottom or trailing margin than the lead margin. The documentation that came with your printer may list minimum margins. Once you find which is the bigger, set both margins to that amount. Unfortunately, that may be bigger than you want.
