Question

example paper/page set
i have illustrator 10. can i move the corner of the printable area on my page? my paper size is 13x19, but the outlined printable area isnt centered over paper. its falling halfway off page.

Answer
Hi Loraine,

On your tool box, lower left you should see a hand tool. Click and hold the tool and the page tool will show. Once the tool is selected click in the lower left corner and use this to position the printable area.
I think that's what you're looking for. If not, please let me know I have another thought.

Thank you,

Tom

    Commenttom, thank you so much for your very prompt response. i didnt think it would come so soon, so found a way to work around the problem. your solution was perfect, thank you. i simply do not know a lot of the tools in the toolbox and didnt look around enough. sometimes i have a hard time knowing if my problem is lack of knowledge of the software or the limitations of my giant complicated epson 4800. i feel great knowing youre out there, thank you again. sincerely, loraine
