A5 card folding to A6

I apologise for possible duplication, but am not sure that I succeeded in posting this properly yesterday. So here it is again.

 

I use Photosho CS6 on a Mac with Mojave (MacOS 10.14.6).

 

I am creating some cards (A5 folding to A6). I want to place an image in the right-hand half of the A5 card (landscape format) with 3 mm margins all round the image, including on the left of the image when the card is folded. I have set the width and height of the canvas to 210 mm x 148 mm, respectively. When (having ensured that the image file has a duplicate layer) I set it to the right in the canvas wndow, and when the size I set for the image allows for margins all round, the right-hand edge of the image is shown in the canvas window as coinciding with the right-hand edge of the canvas. But when I print, the left edge of the image always coincides with the line of the fold in the centre of the card, leaving a 6 mm margin on the right and none on the left of the image when the card is folded.

    So is this roughly how your document is set up?  See screenshot.

     

     

    Can you please post a screenshot of your Print Settings?

    Dear Nancy,

     

    My apologies for not replying sooner. Yes, that is how I want my document set up, with a text near the foot of the left-hand half (blank in your screen-shot).

     

    I attach three screen-shots of successive stages of setting up the image and canvas sizes.

     

    I look forward to further help.

     

    Michael Graubart.

    PS: Further to my previous post, with its three images: having run into the problem that was the subject of my first post in this string, I made a number of cards by manually printing that side of the card twice; first with the image in the right-hand half, then with a jpeg of the text in the left-hand half. Here is a scan of what the whole of that side of the unfolded card should look like — a result that I was hoping to achieve by printing the whole unfolded A5 card in a single printing.
