Created a 31 page text document on 16W x 11L format. Set the margins
so that just left side of page has text. I need the text on 8 x 11
paper. Thought I could cut & paste text on new 8 x 11 document, but
24 hours later, still can't do it. HELP! Tried to make 2 columns
(to highlight left column & paste) but each word came vertical and
had over 2000 pages! Just want what is on half the page, but my
scizzors can't cut the page in vertical half!
The first thing you must do is set the document's margins back to the
default, or something near it -- 1" or 1.25". The text width will
temporarily become about 14", but don't worry about it.
Now change the paper size to Letter (8.5" x 11") or your custom 8" x 11".
