MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / August 2005How do I make A4 default page size when priniting ?
Hi, I am using office xp 2002. The default page size is A4, changed the printer settings to A4, and language to UK English. But when I start Word after making the changes, and try to print, and check properties, it gives the document size as 'letter'. Of course I can manually change it to A4, but it is a real pain. Any idea what needs to be done to keep the default paper size as A4 whent printing ? I am using a HP 6L printer. Hoping to hear soon. JB Change the paper size in the Normal.dot template to A4 via File>Page Setup.  SignatureHope this helps.
