Set paragraph margins in Pages on Mac. You can adjust the margins for specific paragraphs to indent them from the document margins, and change the indentation of the first line of each paragraph. To set margins for the whole document, see Set document margins. Question: In Word 2011 for Mac, how do I change the page margins in a document? Answer: Select the Layout tab in the toolbar at the top of the screen. Then in the Margins group, click on the Margin button. This will open a popup menu where you can select one of the preset margins or 'Custom Margins'.

I can set margins in other programs (like Photoshop, Word, Excel, Firefox, Chrome...), but there does not seem to be a setting for margins when printing from Preview. I don't want to resize the image, just get it to print in a certain position on the paper (template form).

In the case of Photoshop, you are placing an image on a canvas and can position the image to suit. Word and Excel have a Page Setup menu that lets you set the margin positions - which know since you have got the output you wanted. There is no Page Setup menu for most, if not all, Apple applications like Preview. Instead parts of the Page Setup menu have been added to the print dialog but margins is not one of them.

Understood. Unfortunately you don't get that option in Preview. The image will be centred - both horizontal and vertical - based on the paper size and the printer you have selected in the print dialog. You could create a custom paper size with the margins you want to position the image and then use that custom paper in Preview. But your workaround of using Word gives you more control over the positioning of the image.
