Default How Do I Prevent Photo Edges From Being Cut Off?

Hi - I'm trying to make a 3-panel folded pamphlet (via setting up 3 columns).
I have a half inch margin all around, but want a full-panel picture on the
front panel. But Word clips everything that goes into the half inch margin.
I've tried playing with the margins, but the picture still gets clipped. How
can I get the front panel photo to stretch the entire panel without being
clipped? I'm using Word 2003 (Office 2003 Pro) on a WinXP SP2 PC. Thanks!

This is not so much Word as your printer imposing these limitations. If this
is the trailing edge of a landscape document printed on an inkjet printer,
the unprintable area may be at least half an inch.

Thanks Suzanne, would it work on a laser printer?

Even laser printers have *some* unprintable area, though it's usually less.
