Height - 10.25"

I am working from the traditional 8.5 x 11" template in Word. After several time-consuming attempts, which include re-doing the layout for this 140-page document, it keeps getting rejected by the printer due to margin issues.

I'm utterly at sea. Can anyone provide an answer? I thank you for reading this.

By "printer" do you mean your machine or do you mean the person you are going to to get this printed?

Some thoughts, if it is a person who wants something to print from:

OK. The printed size will be 8x10, right?
The printer wants some overlap, right?

Set your top margin for .25 and your bottom margin for .5. That should give you 10.25 of print height in Word.


Set your left margin for .2 and your right margin for .175. That should give you 8.125 width of print area.
