PDFs received by email: poor printouts - 09/04/09 06:15 PM
I don't know where to put this question, so apologies if it's in the wrong place.
One of our contacts emails us a PDF file every few days. Unlike other PDF files, the left hand margin is right up against the left hand side of the screen/display/window. I've tried and tried adjusting the printer settings but seem to have failed to shift the image to the right.
As a result, when printed, the left hand side is clipped all the way down the page, and we cannot read the first couple of characters in each word on the left-hand side, on the print-out.
The PDF files received are not editable.
The only work-around I've come up with is clumsy: take a screenshot of it, which grabs the whole picture, and print that out instead. The resultant printout is fuzzy. It's not a disaster, but it's a very busy PDF filled with tiny script and charts. It would be nice to be able to read the whole thing intact as it should be.
Any ideas? Thanks.
