    Hi Feri,

    Thank you for writing.

    To do that you should utilize the RadPrintDocument API:
    RadPrintDocument doc = new RadPrintDocument();
    doc.Margins.Left = 200;
    radGridView1.PrintPreview(doc);
     
    radGridView1.Print(false, doc);

    More information on the matter is available here: http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/telerik-presentation-framework/printing-support/radprintdocument/radprintdocument

    I hope that you find this information useful. Should you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us.

    Hi Rosa,

    Thank you for writing.

    In order to change the margins of a printed document from RadRichTextEditor, you need to set them on the loaded document. The behavior is similar to the one in Word. While investigating the described scenario I managed to isolate an issue. The incorrect behavior is related to the editor not applying the margins set to the RadPrintDocument instance.

    I have logged the issue in our feedback portal. I have also added a vote for it on your behalf, here: FIX. RadRichTextEditor - the printing engine does not respect the margins set on the RadPrintDocument. You can additionally subscribe to the item and be updated with all of its status changes. I have also updated your Telerik points.

    Until we permanently resolve the issue you need to explicitly apply the margins on the document loaded in the editor. Please check my code snippet below: 
    private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        RadPrintDocument doc = new RadPrintDocument();
        this.radRichTextEditor1.Document.SectionDefaultPageMargin = new Telerik.WinForms.Documents.Layout.Padding(0, 0, 10, 10);
     
        doc.AssociatedObject = this.radRichTextEditor1;
        RadPrintPreviewDialog dialog = new RadPrintPreviewDialog();
        dialog.Document = doc;
        dialog.ShowDialog();
    }

    I hope this helps. Should you have further questions please do not hesitate to write back.
