Margins

Page margins allow you to design with printing in mind. Margins (hidden by default) are indicated by a blue solid line, but this colour can be changed.

Margins
Default margin (A) in relation to page edge (B).

The 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 are set up on document creation either manually or by using the settings of an installed printer. They are non-printing and non-exporting.

To set page margins:
  1. On document setup, check Include margins.
  2. In the dialog, do one of the following:
    • Set the Left Margin, Right Margin, Top Margin, and Bottom Margin.
    • Click Retrieve Margin from Printer to automatically set margins to the settings of your desktop printer.
