This is a function of the printer driver. Very few printers allow printing
to the edge of the page and Word's page setup reflects that. If you have
Acrobat, you can set its driver as the active driver while you format the
document and that will allow you to create a PDF that runs to the edge of
the page, but you will still have a gap when you print it.
