in Word 2010 you may want to change
elements of your page layout depending
on the document you're working on and
how you plan to print it the orientation
of this rental agreement for example is
landscape or horizontal but it's not
really working for me
the text is cut off at the bottom and
continues on to a second page I'm going
to change the page orientation to
portrait or vertical by going to the
page Layout tab and choosing orientation
portrait the text is still getting cut
off but that's okay I'm planning to
print this on legal paper which is a
little bigger than normal so I'm going
to change the page size now to reflect
that just click size and choose the
paper size you need ah much better
you can customize the page layout even
more by adjusting the margins either
click here and choose from the list of
predefined sizes or click custom margins
to choose your own I'm going to make the
margins a little wider at point 7 5
inches instead of 0.5 click OK when
you're done did you notice anything
special about that last dialog box the
truth is it's not just for margins it
lets you adjust all the layout options
we've just gone over to access it again
more easily click the small arrow here
now you can fine-tune all your settings
in one place including margins
orientation paper size and more
