Step 2 - Specifying the page layout

Now you have created a new border, you will select the paper size on which you want to print the border, and change its orientation to landscape.

To specify the page layout:

  1. Select the Page Setup command from the File menu. You see the Page Setup dialog.
  2. Select the size of paper that you currently have loaded in your printer, for example A4 or Letter, in the Paper Size field.
  3. Select the Landscape radio button.
  4. Depending on the paper size you select, you may see a dialog warning you that the current margins may not be valid for the new page orientation. If this dialog appears, click OK to close the dialog, then click Auto-set Margins to display the Auto-set Margins dialog. Ensure that The current printer is selected, then click OK to close the dialog and return to the Page Setup dialog.

    The margins are adjusted for printing a landscape page on your current printer.
  5. Click OK to close the Page Setup dialog. The border now appears in landscape orientation:

The page orientation is set to landscape

In step 3, you will define the area that represents the place in which a chart or histogram will be placed for output.
