PDF does not have any margins. The media box is the area on the paper
where the printer can physically print. If you do not specific the
media box, the PDF reader/viewer is free to choose whatever boundaries
it wants. Usually this is full page for LETTER or 8.5 x 11 inches but
don't rely on this; the PDF reader may be configured to the locale.

You can change any parameter in the program to your heart's content.
You may want to change the color to black for laser printers.
