Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2844:
-----------------------------------------

The default paper Imageable area is this:
X:      72.0
Y:      72.0
width:  451.33
height: 697.91

The actual default paper size is:
width:   595.33
height:  841.91

In other words, we lose an inch on each side :-(

> Printing has bigger margins than expected

> Printing the attached file from PDFReader brings larger margins than 
> expected, and larger than with Adobe Reader. Doing the same with 1.8 has the 
> expected margins (but bad fonts).
> From Александр Свиридов / Alex Sviridov in the mailing list:
> {quote}
> I printed this pdf file with Adobe Reader in mode 100%. And as expected left 
> and right margins are about 2cm. In comparison when I print using pdfbox left 
> margin is 4.5cm, right about 3.5cm.
> The code I use :
> {code}
> PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
> Paper paper=new Paper();
> paper.setSize(72d*8.267d, 72d*11.692);
> PDFPrinter pDFPrinter=new PDFPrinter(document,Scaling.SCALE_TO_FIT, 
> Orientation.PORTRAIT,paper);
> pDFPrinter.silentPrint(job);
> {code}
