Default Remove white border around a color document

Partly that will depend on how the document's brown color is created.

If it was done with a drawing rectangle or a text box that has a brown
fill color, then maybe all you have to do is drag the edges of the
rectangle closer to the edges of the page. The rectangle might be
anchored in the header or footer, which means you'd have to open the
header pane first so you can click on the rectangle to select it.

If the color was made by going to Format Background and selecting
the brown block, then about the only thing I can think of that might
affect the size of the white border is telling the Page Setup dialog
to use a smaller paper size than what's actually in the printer.

It was a small border, but then I started toying with settings and somehow
made it bigger. I have no idea how I did it. Any ideas to get it back to
being a smaller border again?

Many printers do not print to the edge of the paper. I believe that is the
"border" you are seeing. There are several ways to get around this such as
printing on larger paper and then cutting it to size, sending the job out to
a commercial printer (who might do the same thing), or using colored or
preprinted paper.

get the full brown sheet?

I've removed all borders in page layout but it still appears.

Thanks
