[Bug 160310] Re: cups-pdf margins extend to the edge of the page

[Martin-Éric Racine]

This is not a bug.

The imageable size of the CUPS-PDF "printer" indeed is 100% of the
intended paper size, because this printer doesn't have any physical
restriction for its usable area.  By comparison, your laser printer can
only print where its toner drum runs, which is an area about 1cm away
from the paper's edge, thus it correctly has a smaller imageable area.

The real solution here is to format the layout inside the application.
For instance, if you're using OpenOffice, define margins for your
document in the Format/Page... preferences.
