PDF printing margins cut off

Hi,
every time I try to print a PDF directly from Safari 7.0.2, the edges get cut off.
If I download the PDF and print it using Preview or Acrobat, everything is fine. Chrome can print perfectly, so it is not a browser thing.
There are tons of threads about safari cutting edges, wrong margins, etc. I tried a few of workarounds, some dark magic plist editing, nothing helps.
It is not only me, all users of my webapp are reporting the same problem.
Must I disable Safari for my users and ask them to switch to firefox or chrome?
Please help

Hey Apple, I thought you wanted to place Safari as a competitive browser!
Still the same issue on Safari 7.0.3, the margins simply cut off parts of any pdf. It looks like it is a margins issue, but I am not sure.
I am moving all my users to Chrome or Firefox!
PLEASE FIX!!!

Print PDF Directly to Printer - Margins cut off

Hello,
I am using an application called PeopleSoft, and we generate out report files in PDF format.
If I direct the output file directly to the printer then the right and bottom margins are cutting off the document text.
Whereas, if I direct the printer out put to a network drive, then open the PDF in an PDF reader of Acrobate, then print the file it works fine.
Can anyone explain to me why this is so, and if there is a way to change the margins, when sending the output to the printer. To ensure the entire document is printed.
Thanks in advance,
Matt.

Yes, same PDF file.
I run a batch process that generates the report output file, I can choose to direct the output directly to a network printer, or save it to a network drive.
If I choose to direct the output run to the printer then the right margins and bottom margin is cutting off the text of the actual report file.
However, if I direct the output to be saved to the network drive, then open it using Adobe Reader, then print it, the entire report document fits easily within the margins and no text is being cut-off.
I lack the technical knowledge to explain how/why this is happening.

HP Laserjet P1102w - Right side margin cut off when printing in Internet Explorer 9! URGENT PROBLEM*

Hi,
I have just purchased a new printer (HP Laserjet P1102W), and when I print a web page in Internet Explorer 9, the footer (I set to the URL) does not print at all and the header will print though the right hand edge of my entire web page is cut off (including my top right header - Pages ? of ?).
I always use Print Preview first, and in the print preview it looks perfect. I always tick the box to enable shrink to fit too. Why will it look perfect in 'Print Preview' but yet when it prints, it cuts off the right hand side edge of the page and doesnt print the footer?? I have tried adjusting margins, etc... all to no avail.
I would like to check whether others have this same problem?
I spoke to HP (UK Printer Support) and they said it is Internet Explorer 9's problem. I have left a message on the Microsodt Web forum which you can see here. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie9-windows_vista/internet-exploer-9-not-printing-header...
I am hoping they may release a patch / hotfix - but this has to be affecting many other users of this printer too? The more of us that complain, the quicker it will get sorted.
Any others with the same problem?
Thanks.

I spoke with Microsoft technical support via phone today. Between us - we seemed to have found the problem.
It's to do with the DPI (the font size) settings in Windows!?
I have mine set to 188% on my Windows Vista mahcine and 200% on my Windows 7 laptop.
From my Printing tests in Internet Explorer 9...
at 100 % DPI – it prints perfectly
at 150% DPI – it prints perfectly
at 200% DPI – the right side of the margin is cut off, and no footer is printed – despite it looking perfect in the Print Preview.
I am using http://uk.msn.com/ as my test print outs.
This indicates when the DPI is changed above 150%, IE9 doesn't print properly – though other browsers like Safari or Firefox do print correctly. This surely has to indicate a bug in either the Windows operating system or Internet Explorer 9?
Microsoft are going to run their own tests and phone me back tomorrow...hopefully with a solution!
Hope this helps any others with the same problem at the moment!
Would be great if HP could provide a soloution asap - surely a tweak to the Printer dirvers will fix the problem?

When printing from web pagess, right margin cuts off print, cant seem to reconfigure. Frames select on print choices does not highlight for printing options. What will help?

Using a Dell Dimension E310 with Windows XP and Dell photo 924 Print/Scan/Copier. When printing from web pages on the browser the right portion of the print is cut off. It appears that the "folders" frame on the left side of the page is always printing with the page, which cuts off the print on the right side of the main page frame by the width of the "folders" frame. When I select the print command, the choice for selecting a particular frame to print is on the drop down menu, but is not highlighted for use. We have had this problem with Firefox for some time. Printing from IE or Word, etc. does not produce the same problem. We like Firefox otherwise. What is the fix?

You're right: most web pages do not use frames, so that option usually is not available.
I don't know why a page that printed just the main content before would change to printing with useless sidebars. Can you try the site in Firefox's Safe Mode and see whether it prints/previews correctly there?
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does that fix it? If so, the difference usually is caused by one of your add-ons. You can restart the regular way and disable all non-essential add-ons here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons
In particular, check the Extensions category.

HP Designjet T520 Printing A3 cuts off at bottom

HP Designjet T520 Printing A3 cuts off at bottom When we plot something with AutoCad, and then print Portrait, it all prints fine except the bottom edge is slightly cut off. The paper we are using is A3, and the printer and Autocad settings is A3. Any ideas? WINDOWS 7 - NO ERROR MESSAGES

This very same issue is affecting me with T520.This happens with vertical A4 and A3, and till now I've not yet found a solution. To be sure to be within printer margins I've set the drawing actual margins on all the four sides to be 1.8 cm from paper sheets borders.But as alway I get the bottom border cut, while the upper border seems shifted downward and it's placed at 3,0 cm from the upper border of the paper. BUTif I set the page to be ORIZONTAL in the application, choose the orizontal page format etc the printout is perfectly aligned. To me this seems a weird issue.Experienced this issue using Archicad 16, Illustrator and Indisign. On OSX, from Snow Leopard to Mavericks. These are my printer details:Nome prodotto HP Designjet T520 24inNumero modello prodotto CQ890A Versione firmware AXP2CN1437AR

PDF attachment getting cut off

Hello Experts,
I'm trying to send a PDF attachment using a PL/SQL procedure. In this procedure Im picking up the PDF file from server and sending it via email attachment. The procedure works fine and sends the PDF but it cuts off the data in the PDF. When I open the PDF file I can only see half of page the rest is just blank. I cant figure out why this is happening, can someone please check the procedure and let me know where im going wrong.

Hi,
I managed to make it work, I changed the attach_base64 as per your recommendations but made my own slight change :-
PROCEDURE attach_base64_fromfile
(conn IN OUT NOCOPY utl_smtp.connection,
                    filename IN VARCHAR2,
floc IN VARCHAR2,
               mime_type IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'application/octet',
                    inline IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE,
                    last IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE) IS
i PLS_INTEGER;
len PLS_INTEGER;
fh Utl_File.File_Type;
buf raw(32767);
BEGIN
begin_attachment(conn, mime_type, inline, filename, 'base64');
fh := Utl_File.Fopen (
location => floc,
filename => filename,
open_mode => 'r');
BEGIN
Utl_File.Get_Raw (
file => fh,
buffer => buf);
i := 1;
len := utl_raw.LENGTH(buf);
WHILE (i < len) LOOP
IF (i + MAX_BASE64_LINE_WIDTH < len) THEN
utl_smtp.write_raw_data(conn, utl_encode.base64_encode(buf));
utl_smtp.write_data(conn, utl_tcp.CRLF);
END IF;
i := i + MAX_BASE64_LINE_WIDTH;
END LOOP;
EXCEPTION
WHEN no_data_found THEN NULL;
END;
Utl_File.Fclose ( file => fh );
end_attachment(conn, LAST);
END;
and created another procedure to call send_mail.attach_base64_fromfile :-
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE send_email_attachment IS
conn utl_smtp.connection;
BEGIN
conn := Send_Mail.begin_mail(
sender => '[email protected]', -- sender email address
recipients => '[email protected]', -- recipient email address
subject => 'Attachment Test',
mime_type => Send_Mail.MULTIPART_MIME_TYPE);
send_mail_vv.attach_base64_fromfile(
conn => conn,
filename => 'test.pdf', -- file name
floc => 'TEST', -- file location
mime_type => 'application/octet',
inline => TRUE);
Send_Mail.end_attachment( conn => conn );
Send_Mail.end_mail( conn => conn );
END;
Thanks for all your help.

Unwanted margin cutting off design when printing document

I've laid out a design in InDesign that is meant to be printed on a precut 5.5" square card. The document is set up as a 5.5" square with no margins... my design is set to the edge of the card on the screen. when i print on 8.5"x11" everything is fine all images appear - nothing is cut off. when i print on my precut cards the images get cut off by a 1/8" margin on all edges of the card. printer settings are set to have no margins as well. i've never had this problem before and can't seem to solve it. i tried to make the document a PDF and print it that way but the same thing happened. i contacted epson (i print with an epson RX595) and this is what they said:
"The program that you are having problems printing from probably requires a Postscript Printer Definition (PPD) and this printer does not have one available from Epson. In order to get a PPD for the printer, you will need to look for third party RIP programs that will work with your printer.
Another option may be to save the file as a PDF before printing as this will mask PS fonts and EPS files (even if you do not use PS fonts this may be necessary).
If the issue persists, we recommend contacting the program vendor or Apple for additional support."
any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated!! thanks!

Just a guess, but if this is a borderless printer you probably need to click the setup button in the print dialog to access the driver settings, and pick the borderless page size there, then set the size inthe print dialog to "defined by driver."

Printing web pages margins cut off

When I print web pages with any of 3 printers, the left and right margins are cut off by about one letter. Using HP printers, Leopard. Doesn't occur with other programs such as mail, Word etc. Print options in Safari do not include margins. Any suggestions?

Print bordless page, margin cut off

Hello ,
I have a problem on printing on bordless page type. Even though I set up thepage to have 0 margins (the printer allows me this - so I am not forcing it to 0), I have 2 possible situations:
- if I use the setPageable, before printing I will have the image considered to be at 0,0 , but the printer leaves a margins, so the image looks cut off
- if I use setPrintable(..) then the image is printed from a certain margin, the image is no longer cut off, but is not on 0,0 either.
Any sugestions?
Many thnx in advance!

Here is some code:
pageFormat - is an object taken from a page Format dialog, one of my own, the values passed from there are OK.
PrintRequestAttributeSet attributeSet = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
               MediaPrintableArea mediaPrintableArea;
               mediaPrintableArea = new MediaPrintableArea((float) (pageFormat
                         .getPaper().getImageableX() / 72), (float) (pageFormat
                         .getPaper().getImageableY() / 72), (float) (pageFormat
                         .getPaper().getImageableWidth() / 72), (float) (pageFormat
                         .getPaper().getImageableHeight() / 72), MediaSize.INCH);
               attributeSet.add(mediaPrintableArea);
               attributeSet.add(pagePrintFormat.getMediaName());
               if (pagePrintFormat.getPageFormat().getOrientation() == PageFormat.PORTRAIT) {
                    attributeSet.add(OrientationRequested.PORTRAIT);
               } else {
                    attributeSet.add(OrientationRequested.LANDSCAPE);
               if (this.printJob.printDialog(attributeSet))
                    try {...printing job...}

HT4356 printing page from facebook using picture and airprint page in upper left quadrant with words and margin cut off

I have a ipad 4 with 6700 hp printer. I was told by support that the way to print a page from facebook was to take a picture of the page and then print the picture. When I do this the picture is printed in the upper left hand quadrant with part of the wording cut off. Is the only or best way to print from facebook and how can I fix the location of the print. Seems Hoaky to me
Luther288

Well after weeks of anguish, trips to the apple store (not very professional ), calls to Apple support (no help), calls to HP support, they transfered me to airprint support who actually told me how to fix my problem. For an HP printer download from the app store HPAIO remote print. You have to search on AIO remote print. Installed this app and now I can make the print work like I would like. Good luck

Printing area cut off

I have a HP4500 officejet on a mac power pc G4 with 10.5.8.
My problem is that the print cuts off in the middle of words, 15mm from the short edge of a landscape sheet!
the other side short edge of the landscape sheet (A4) prints to 10mm from the edge as it should do.
I am using Quark express 6.1
help!
regards
Roger

Let me make sure I understand. When using QuarkXPress and you change the page format from portrait to landscape, the words continue to go past the edge of the paper so they are getting cut off and not wrapping around automatically, correct? It has been a long time since I used Quark so I will do my best to help out if I can. I had to do a lot of searching but I did find this page about Mastering Printing in Quark. Let me know if this doesn't help you and I will look into a setting like margins to change in the HP Utility for your printer, but I would start with the print settings in Quark first.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

Every other line of print is cut off on my Photosmart C4750

I have recently replaced and aligned new cartridges on my Photosmart C4750. I am printing directly from computer to printer via USB. The last two items I have printed are being cutt off every other line of print, on either the top or bottom of the printed pages. Any ideas?

Hello there, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
I noticed your post about the printing problems you are having and would like to offer you my suggestion. First of all, print using a different program to see if the issue is only within one program. If you see the issue happening no matter where you print from, run the HP Print and Scan Doctor if you're running a Windows OS.
Also, try a copy to see if there are cut offs with them as well!
Please let me know what happened and include your OS and programs you have tried printing from.
Help to find which Operating System you are running:
Which Windows Operating System am I running?
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
Hope to hear from you soon I hope my post was helpful.
