Anyone know how to bleed a page background color through the page margins?

  • 1.  Anyone know how to bleed a page background color through the page margins?

    Posted Thu June 17, 2021 08:14 AM
    We're developing a report intended to be run to PDF and have a need to change the background color. I can change the page background, but it leaves the margins white. Is there any way to apply a background color to the entire page including margins?

    Thanks!

    Hi Wendi,
    just set all four page margins to 0px and the colour spreads to all edges on the PDF page. If you like to keep the margin for the report content just add a table or block with additional columns or padding.
