picture to run off the page, but when I print there is about a 1/4 inch
border put on my document...I have the margins set to 0"...

Regardless of how you format this in Word, Print Preview will show you what
your printer can handle. Most desktop printers have an irreducible
unprintable area (to allow for paper handling), and there's not much way
around this. Even printers that claim to print "borderless" often do so only
for smaller paper sizes, not for Letter size. Other printers require you to
change a setting in the printer Properties to enable borderless printing.
The bottom line is that if you want to print "full bleed" (all the way to
the edge, you'll probably have to do it the way even commercial printers do:
print on oversized paper and trim the result.
