Version: Older version Operating System: Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Processor: Intel I made a 11 x 17 poster and used an available background image for the poster but it did not fill the whole poster. When the poster printed it had a thick white border around it. How do I get it to fill the whole poster up with the backround?

1) Set the slide size to the size of the paper or something
proportional to it

2) In the print dialog box, chose the Scale to fit paper option

3) Print to a printer that's physically capable of printing clear to
the edges. Very few are, and chances are that's your problem.

3) Print to a larger paper size, then trim to final size. Some 11x17
printers also accept a slightly larger size (12x17.5 or so) for just
this reason.
