I cannot find any information on this topic.  I really need help.  I placed my artwork using Illustrator at an x & y coordinate of .0125 to use as a bleed.  However, when printing using Acrobat Pro, the art shifts to 0.25 margin ignoring my bleed and shifting / compressing my artwork.  I cannot find a solution for this.

I found a great way to resolve this issue.  I stopped using Acrobat Pro all together.  Instead, I am simply printing from Illustrator.  The art prints perfectly at exactly 0.25 inches.  Now, to figure out how to print in high quality.  The print dialogue box in Illustrator has only permitted me to print in standard quality.  I need to be able to print in a different paper setting and quality.  Let us see.

prints at 0.125 not .25

I am so sorry.  I placed my artwork in Illustrator at 0.125" not .0125 as I wrote earlier.  I discovered my printer, an Epson ET-3760, prints borderless so placing an image at 0.125" should not be a problem.  I cannot crop the image, move it, because the image needs to be accurately place in its correct x-coordinate.  I understand these margins should be changed in Illustrator not in Acrobat but this approach does not seem to be working for me.  I bet this is something very silly and easy but something I am seriously overlooking due to my extent of knowledge I may possess.  Even if I place my artwork at 0.25" and add a bleed of 0.125, my artwork is shifted to 0.25.
