Hi All
Someone please say if this makes sense and whether there is a solution.

It sounds like Framer is going to draw the frame around the edge of the canvas, and either needs the graphics under it to be empty so it won't show through (not likely, the frame is probably not transparent), or they just recommend the image be shrunk so people won't find the outer 20 or 50 pixels of their image have been overdrawn by the frame, and shrinking the image is the simplest way to ensure people do what's needed.
Doesn't Framer work anyway, using your method? It probably should. They probably recommend their method so people start with a standard size and later just shrink it by a few pixels, instead of having to figure out you want an 8x10print but need to leave a 100 pixel border, so how many 7 and what sixty-fourths fo an inch should it be, to leave that 100 pixel border.
