I want to set a particular size of a pdf file as 17.52" x 10.992" to create a front and back book cover.

Within Settings, Default Page Size I set those dimension but it reduces the printed image to 16.96" x 10.38", I guess this is creating a margin. How can I stop this?

On reflection, I wonder if you are taking a PDF and just printing to another PDF. If you are doing that - DON'T !!

How do you make the PDF, step by step, including all settings? There are many, many ways, so we need details to give you advice. Also what app is used to make the original?

Hi,

Please see the slides provided in this link and verify if your pages are not defaulted to use the document structure of your PDF file:

I have a Landscape map. I tried your suggestion but it rotates the image to Portrait. Why would this be?

I think it has to do with the document structure of the original file when it was created. Like Test Screen Name is suggesting can you throe more details about how the file was created and which program was used before it was converted to a PDF file. On the other hand, if you were able to get rid of the margin issues you can rotate the page there using the same tool "Organize Pages"
