I made a DVD Case label in photoshop 8.0 from a case label I had made in photoshop 3.0. For some reason, 8.0 isn’t printing the entire page, it says image is too big and cuts off about an inch on the length. In
3.0 I was able to change the page deminsions or print area so it would
use more of the 11 inch piece of paper – I think I just shortened the margins. I can’t find a way to do this in 8.0. Does anyone know how?

Well, I use Photoshop 3.0 on my PC, and 8.0 on my MAC. "The image is larger than the papers printable area. Some clipping will occur". That is the message I get. I came up on 3.0 as well, but I just changed my page setup so that the margins were smaller. On my mac/photoshop 8.0 I cannot seem to find the margins setup or any way to tell it to print as much a a standard piece of paper should hold.

With a Mac and Photoshop, hold down the CONTROL key and click at the bottom of the window next to the percetage number. This will display how your image looks when printed to the selected printer.

If the image is larger than the page size you can do 1 of two things.

1 – Use PAGE SETUP to reduce the image when printed.

2 – Use IAMGE>IMAGE SIZE and reduce the increase the resolution but do NOT let Photoshop resize the image.
