Lise, Years ago, a colleague suggested that I set up all projects to work with both A4 paper and US letter 8.5 x 11 paper by setting the page size to Custom with the width to 8.26" and the height to 11". As far as I know, this works, and you don't have to switch back and forth. You'll have a little larger margins on US letter, but not a big deal.

Fellow Framers, I'm mostly a lurker, but have found the wealth of knowledge shared by this list's members to be quite helpful! I have a manual (I'm on Frame 8) in which I've used conditional text to show/hide tables, text, parts lists depending on if it's for the American market or European. This manual originated for a US-made product so it started life with 8.5x11 (US-letter size) pages. And it didn't even occur to me that it might need to be A4-sized for the European market. Is there a good way to switch back and forth between A4 and 8.5x11 page sizes, depending on which version of a book you want to print? I have the sneaking suspicion that I will have to break this into two separate books, but I figured I'd ask to see if anyone had recommendations. Thanks, Lise -- Save the earth.
