Select the desired page size from the drop-down list that appears. Remember, you should be sure that your printer is capable of handling paper that size.
Your publication's page size will be changed.
If the desired page size isn't included in the drop-down list, select More Preset Page Sizes... to view a larger list of page sizes.
[h=4]To Change Page Orientation:
On the Ribbon, select the Page Design tab and locate the Page Setup group, then click the Orientation drop-down command.
Select Portrait orientation to make your publication taller than wide, or Landscape to make it wider than tall.
Your publication's page orientation will be changed.
Depending on the template you chose, changing the page orientation may have a negative effect on your
presentation. While some templates work equally well in both orientations, others do not.

A dialog box will appear asking you how you wish to use the template. You can either:
Apply the template to the current publication.
Create a new publication that includes the text and images you have added.
Click OK.
The new template will be applied to your publication.
[h=3]Adding, Rearranging, and Deleting Pages
If you're creating a newsletter or another type of publication with multiple pages, you might find the Page Navigation pane
useful. The Page Navigation pane gives you a way to view and scroll through the pages in your publication. It also includes
features that let you add, move, and delete pages.
To open the Page Navigation pane, click the View tab on the Ribbon and locate the Show group. Then, select the Page Navigation checkbox.
[h=4]Text Basics
As discussed in Lesson 1, in order to use Publisher 2010, you should already feel comfortable using Microsoft
Word to insert and edit text. If you find yourself having trouble working with text in Publisher, review our Word 2010 course, especially the following lessons:
Text Basics - Reviews basic topics like inserting, deleting, copying, and movingtext
Formatting Text - Includes text formatting tasks like changing font style, size, and color
The Text Fit options allow you to format text boxes that automatically adjust font or text box size to get a
good fit. There are four text fit options that you can apply to any text box:
Best Fit, which makes the text larger or smaller to fit the text box.
Shrink Text on Overflow, which automatically shrinks the font size when the text box has no room for additional text.
Grow Text Box to Fit, which automatically enlarges your text box based on text size and length.
Do not Autofit, which makes no automatic changes to your text or text box size. This is the default option.
For instance, if your text box was too small for your text, you might apply Shrink Text on Overflow or Grow Text Box to Fit.
On the other hand, if you have a certain amount of space for your text box and want your text to fill the entire area, you might select Best Fit.
To modify text fit, select the text box, then click the Text Fit drop-down command in the Text group of the Text Box Tools tab. Select the desired option.
