sorry im new to all this, but i just made a dvd slim case for one of my shorts. Im just using regular paper and trying to print it out, but photoshop says the pic is too big and shrinks the image a little to fit on one page. The thing is, one sheet of paper is more than enough, and it prints with a big white border around the image. so how do i adjust the settings to print closer to the edge of the paper? what im printing is 750x518 pixels

what im printing is 750x518 pixelsWhat are the DPI settings for the image? If DPI is set to 1DPI, then print will try to be 750 inches by 518 inches.

SO.... what DPI is your image and what SIZE do you want to print it?


Oh... and how close you can print to the edge of the paper is determined by your PRINTER.

sorry i dont really use photoshop or know much about this, i dont know what dpi is?


what SIZE do you want to print it?



i said the size was 750x518 pixels and when i view that as inches its 10.417 by 7.194
i know when printing in microsoft word you just drag the ruler at the top to the side and you can print all the way to the edge, im just trying to figure out how to do that in photoshop. (i dont need to print all the way to the edge, just enough to print out a slim dvd insert)
