Default Printing 11" by 8.5"

How do we setup the page so it will print vertically11" by 8.5? I just want
the text wide and bigger but the defautl print setting which is 8.5 by 11 is
not big enough.

Thank you.

Hi Raymond,
I presume the paper goes through your printer short edge first.
Everything in your printer definition should say Portrait. And
in Excel you make the choice between Portrait and Landscape
directly at the top of the dialog File, Page Setup, Page (tab)
as Portrait.

You can control the margins on the Margins (tab) of the above.

You have not described to me in terms that I understand of
what your problem actually is. You want the print bigger and
the paper is not wide enough -- to me that indicates a
switch to Landscape would be in order.
