Margins

Page margins give an indication of the extent of the page that will be printed when using a desktop printer. Design elements positioned outside the margins may not be printed.

Margin positions can be customised manually or using the settings of an installed printer. They are non-printing and non-exporting.

To change page margins:

From the default context toolbar, or File menu, select Document Setup.
In the pop-up dialog, select the Margins tab.
Select the Include margins option.
Do one of the following:
- Set the Left Margin, Right Margin, Top Margin, and Bottom Margin.
- Click the colour swatch to display a pop-up panel to update the margin colour.

To hide/show margins:

From the View menu, deselect/select Show Margins. A check mark is displayed next to the menu item when the margins are visible.

To change the colour of margins:

From the File menu, select Document Setup.
From the Margins tab, click the colour swatch to display a pop-up panel to update the margin colour.
