When printing in Google Chrome, if text is enlarged, a part of the text is cut off.
I read that you can stretch the margins in Preview, but I couldn’t find where or how.

@amiregelz gave a great answer in another question, which answer also will solve your question:

There is a way to change the default print margins in Google Chrome. It is possible in Google Chrome version 22 and further versions.

While in current and previous versions of Chrome it is not possible, starting in Chrome 22 the selected printer and its settings should persist across browser restart.


In order to change Chrome default print margins, all you'll have to do is change the margins settings to your preference and it will become the default print margins.

To change the print margins settings in Google Chrome, this is what you'll need to do:

  • Enter the Chrome print preview page (Shortcut: Ctrl+P):

enter image description here

  • There is a sidebar in the left side of the print preview page, with several printing options, including Margins settings.
  • You can change the margins to None, Minimum or Custom. To change the margins to your preference (in your case making them
    wider), choose Custom and adjust the margins as you wish (by stretching them).

Keep in mind that in Google Chrome versions prior to version 22, when printing with Custom margins, Chrome will remember those settings and use them again next time you print. However, if you close and reopen Chrome, the margins revert back to the default of 0.4 inches.


Another way to change the default print margins in Chrome, is to enable kiosk mode printing and use the following code to change the margins settings to your preference (for no margins at all, use 0px):

@page{
margin-left: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
