Hi, I saved a file as PDF in illustrator, during the preview there are no white borders and I set it to fit page, actual size, etc but it keeps printing out with a white border. I use Adobe Pro Acrobat DC for the print preview. How do I print without the white border?

    if your printer doesnt print to the edges of the page (like the edge of an a4 sheet)

    then you'll need to print at 1:1 size but on to larger paper such as A3, then trim the paper down to a4,

    this is essentially what will happen in print production where bleed is applied to allow page trimming for content to go right to the edges of a page.

    Depends on your printer. Most printers just can't print to the edges of the paper.
