Default Creating a document in 11x17" format

Hi
I need to create a document in 11"x17" format. I assumed there would be a
template for this, but if I click "New Document" it defaults to 8.5x11 page
size. Can anyone tell me how I can create a blank 11x17 format please?
Thanks
Phil

Thumbs up Answer: Creating a document in 11x17" format

Hi Phil,

Sure thing! Here's how you can create a blank 11"x17" document in Microsoft Word:
  1. Open Microsoft Word and click on the "Layout" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
  2. Click on "Size" and then select "More Paper Sizes" at the bottom of the dropdown menu.
  3. In the "Page Setup" window that appears, enter "11" for the width and "17" for the height under the "Paper" section.
  4. Make sure the "Orientation" is set to "Portrait" or "Landscape" depending on your preference.
  5. Click "OK" to create your new document.

That's it! You should now have a blank 11"x17" document ready for you to start working on. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there's anything else I can help you with.

File | Page Setup | Paper or Paper Size: choose 11"x17". This option will be
available only if the default (or currently active) printer is capable of
printing this paper size.
