11x17 word document

[Guest]

I want to create an 11x17 page on my computer, to print on another computer
(my printer does not take 11x17 pages). How to I do this?

The newsgroup to which you posted your question is an Access newsgroup. We
answer questions about the database application MICROSOFT ACCESS. This
is not a Word newsgroup.

You should probably get in the habit of looking at a few posts before you
add a new thread to a newsgroup. This newsgroup has nothing to do with your
question.

I'm betting if you search the appropriate newsgroup, or google, you might
even find an answer to your question without having to ask someone to repeat
it for you.

I know that this is really a Microsoft Access forum, but I am a word
processor by birth (almost), so...

I'm in Windows XP, your setup might be slightly different. Open your
document (or start a new blank one); click on File; then scroll down and
click on Page Setup; you'll see three tabs, click on the second one labelled
Paper. On Paper Size, click on the down arrow, then scroll down to highlight
the word Custom, then click to display the word Custom in the box. You're
done. OK your way out of all the boxes/menus. Then go ahead and edit or
create your document.

Don't forget to save it again after you change the paper size!

HTH.

In Peace, Max
