Changing the size of the Layout Window

Adjusting the page size of the Layout Window


The page in the Layout Window is designed to represent a piece of paper of a particular size. The size of the chosen page is set in the Page Setup Window.


  1. Go to File Menu > Printer Type and select which printer you will print to
  2. Go to File Menu > Page Setup or click on the Page Setup button in the toolbar

The Layout Window will automatically update to display the chosen paper size. This is particularly useful if you print to a wide format printer because you can create a page of effectively limitless size (the only restriction is the capability of your hardware).
