      Title

      Layout width

      Post

      I have spent hours looking for a way to change the page width of a layout. I tried setting it to lletter vis the print setup but the dotted lines go back to the small size of a label printer.

      Also, sometimes when I make a layout - the ruler on the top starts at 8.5 inches, and the window is scrolled all the way to the left!!!!!

      Any help would be most appreciated.

          Does this happen if you try this with a brand new file? (Your file may be damaged).

          Also, the poeition of the print area limit line is a function of the page size/orientation you select in print setup and also controlled by options you might select in the Print tab of Layout setup..., so you might check there to see if multi-column printing ( such as for a labels layotu) or margins may have been specified.

            Now I got it so it looks good as a full sheet on the screen in preview mode but only prints the area that would be used by a label printer when I do file>print> & pick correct printer @ letter size!
