Use these text boxes to specify the size of the margins of each page of the drawing. The Page Size values, shown circled, reflect the available drawing size of each page as determined by the paper selection. The dimensions shown are those available after margins are subtracted.

The margins and page size are measured in the Fine Scale Units as shown by the Units Button found at the upper right hand corner of the palette.

Each margin, (left, right, top, bottom) may be specified by entering a number in the corresponding text box. The values shown are presented and entered in the Units of the drawing as specified on the Scale panel. These values are reported and entered sans-scaling. They are unscaled physical paper dimensions.

The page size dimensions are those of the page derived by subtracting the appropriate margin values from the physical size of the paper and applying the Scaling selection. The reddish background provides a visual clue that these dimensions are derived and may not be entered directly. The dimensions shown are in the units of the drawing as specified on the scale parameter panel.

The dependency chain controlling page size is as follows: Printer selection determines available paper options, paper selection determines physical paper size, margins are subtracted from available paper size, scaling (the value on this panel) expands or shrinks the remaining page size. The Scale of the drawing (specified on the scaling panel) does not effect final page size.

Use the preview panel to understand the overall interaction of these parameters and their affect on the printed drawing.
