Hi, When I use Print>Save as PDF to create diptychs etc., the resulting PDF/jpeg has a much smaller margin on the left than the right despite them being the same in the print window.
Any ideas what might be causing this?
Thanks.

Tim,

Are you talking about working in Books or the Light Table?

Hi Joseph,

Neither, simply selecting 3 images in the browser window then cmd+P to print.
I haven’t a clue about Books or Light Table!

Thanks.

Tim,

That probably has to do with the print margins of the printer you’re “using”. I put using in quotes because even though you’re not printing, you are selecting a printer to make a PDF (based off how that printer would print it). I’m guessing that the printer has uneven margins for top and bottom and you’re “printing” in landscape, and that’s where the problem is creeping in.

I think you’ll need to set up a custom print for that printer that has zero margins (or at least even margins) and go from there. See if you can figure that out; I’d need to do some experimenting on my end to try that myself.
