Trick for printing manual for 3 hole punching?

This sounds stupid, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to print the manual PDFs with different margins to properly clear a 3-hole punch. I'm trying to build a very good copy of all the documentation for my use, but I can't figure or a way to shift it. I know someone has to have a trick out there.

And yes, I could (and probably still will) load all the docs up to a iPad Mini, but after poking at this a few days, it's the principle of the thing!

Re: Trick for printing manual for 3 hole punching?

Spend a few dollars and take it to Staples or your local printing place. They can help with the alignment, and their three hole drills create a slightly larger hole.

If it's completed info check into their spiral bindings. One year I had them spiral bind the small chapters/sections and then three hole punch to fit them all into a 4" binder. Roboteers could take an individual section, use it without the loss or mixup of any pages and return it back to the master binder.

Re: Trick for printing manual for 3 hole punching?

Thanks for the suggestion Foster, I'll probably do that next year, not worth the headache!

I actually tried something different this morning and so far its working. I tired PDF-XChange Viewer and it give me just enough options for it to work.

I ended up setting Page Scaling to "Fit to printer margins" then checked "Auto-Centre pages in sheets" and it givers just enough of a bump to clear the 3 hole punch I'm using. I had not tried another viewer! >.<
