Remove page shadows

[Tarah]

I am trying to stop the shadow from showing around the edge of the page when I print a workflow diagram.
I have tried to change the options under 'Shadow' in Page Setup, but the options are numbered 2 to 14 and all of them put a shadow on the page. The best I have managed is to set the offsets to 0, but this still puts a border on two sides.
I'd really appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks

On Page Setup; Shadows; Have you tried changing the Magnification to zero?

The shadow setting in the page setup is for the objects on the page. I have
not been able to print a drawing with a shadow around the page.

Is the shadow you are seeing white? In that case, what you may be seeing is
the area your printer can not print in. Not all printers have full bleed
(print to the very edge). Normally the backgrounds are white and this margin
is not visible.

Sorry, forgot to mention that - I did try it, it doesn't make any

difference. It still prints a line about 1mm thick on the top and left hand
side of the page. I don't suppose there's any way of changing the colour to
white, or something along those lines?
