Not enough information, Chris.
It is possible to set the Height of the Detail section to match the height
of an A4 page (less the top and bottom margins of the report and any
headers/footers you need to allow for), and then stretch out the text boxes
to fit.
But it's also possible you need a completely different approach. For
example, your report could be a letter with a 'table' in the middle that
lists multiple records. In this case, the address panel would go into the
letter header, the Detail section would be 1-row tall, and the letter footer
would contain the signature panel. There's a screenshot of such a report (a
letter that lists an order, shown in design view) on this page:

I've given up all attempts to open merge document in Access - simply
doesn't work
I have decided to opt for importing the document into/as an access report
Just wondered whether there are any golden rules/tips for doing this
before I make a total dogs dinner of it
I would assume the whole document should go in the detail section (not
headers/footers) - it's just single page anyhow
Also wondering whether I can set the detail section to "A4" dimensions
