Hi,

If I want to print a borderless image from within Photoshop, is the simplest
way to just make the image ever so slightly larger than the paper?

For example, for 6x4 paper should I make the image 6.1 inches by 4.1 inches?

Cheers,

Simon.

The printer driver is still going to enlarge the image if you select
borderless.

Hi,

Can you elaborate on that - or simplify matters for me.

What steps should I take to re-size a 12x8 image to 6x4 and get a broderless
print?

No matter how close the size is to the size paper you are using the driver
blows up the image slightly. It requires some trial and error to determine
exactly how much it enlarges the image.

If you have any edge details you may lose them when you print borderless.
