Setting margins
You can set different margins for each layout.
1. Choose Page Setup from the File menu, confirm the printer and paper
settings, and then click OK.
To switch printers, see “Specifying a printer” on page 6-14. For
information about other settings, see the manual that came with your
printer.
2. In Layout mode, choose a layout, and then choose Layout Setup from
the Mode menu.
3. In the Layout Setup dialog box, select Fixed page margins, type values
for the margins, and then click OK.
4. Switch to Preview mode to check the margins.
