Hey Neil, funny thing here...I have no idea who answered my prior comments on here as this is the first time I'm logging on to check my replies. (Weird) Anyhow Neil, it seems you're dead on. I believe it's enlarging the image slightly so that I'm losing parts of the image. Exactly as you stated above. Here's the thing though, I did try to print Borderless and it's still not matching. It's even worse actually! I lose more of the image that way. Man Neil, I am so pissed!!! I can't believe I'm unable to do this in Illustrator!!! I can't find an answer anywhere and you've been my only help so far! You know what I noticed though, I did an attempt with just vector drawn symbols on the exact same scale and printed them out and they matched to a T!!! Dead on!! Vertical and Horizontal!! But when I print an image I'm noticing the trim. What the heck?? Why? I'm avoiding Kinkos since the way I'm doing it now doesn't cost me a single penny!! I get free photo paper and ink from Epson and I'm using their gorgeous Epson Artisan 800 printer. Neil, there's got to be a way!! Do you think Adobe would know?? Or Epson? I don't think it's a printer issue. Why does it work out okay on vector drawing but not on an image? Also, I originally tried it on Photoshop. I cut my image into 8.5 x 11 squares and tried to print them borderless but again...same disaster. Thanks for your help Neil.
