With mounting your prints:
You want to remove the white border around your prints if you will ONLY be mounting them. Otherwise you will have an unattractive white border around your print. This can be even more of an eyesore if the white print border is on top of off-white mounting board. You can cut down your print to desired size first, tack a corner of the mounting paper to a corner of the print, then cut down the excess mounting paper.
If you will be mounting AND MATTING your prints, the white border is not an issue. once you have matted the print, the photograph will show through the window, but the print border will be covered by the mat.

what if we are matting & mounting our prints but still want to cut off the white border on some of them?
I am cutting off the white borders on all of mine. I am going to mount all of them and then if I have time I will do the matting. If I don't have time, at least all of them will be mounted and the assignment complete! The matting will cover the sides of the print so it won't matter if you have borders or not - if you are going to do that.
