When I view my file as .pdf it shows the very small margins all

what appears to be 1" margins left and right and bottom, and
about 2" from the top of the page to the top of the title. What
do I have to do to get the page to print just like the .pdf? I am
using jedit/ jpedal on XP. Below is my code for this particular
page.
most pdf viewers or printer dialogues have an option "scale page
to fit printer margins" or something similar. i've run into this
issue before when i've forgotten to ensure that the printer
doesn't scale the printout.
technical reasoning behind this option is that a lot of pdfs have
content all the way to the edge of the page and this content would
otherwise be cut off in the printout, so by default, the printer
driver will scale a pdf down to fit the printer margins.
So how do you get it to print properly if you DON'T want it to
"shrink to fit"? (ime, it then prints the page, full size, but
offset down and left by the printer margin!)
I've found it IMPOSSIBLE to get the pdf to print cleanly on a sheet
of paper, full size, properly centred.
Cheers,
Wol
In Adobe Acrobat, I use no printer scaling, and automatically center.
That gets it how it's supposed to be. At least for me.
