Version: FM9 (9.0p237) OS: XP Pro with SP3 I've been busy creating a new book for an Installation Guide, but I'm having a problem resizing the Book page size.
I started with an existing book that uses standard letter sized paper. On the Master Pages, I resized and moved the header body and footer (where applicable) text flows. Just in case it matters, here is the current sizing info (sorry for any inconvenience, but I use metric): Header: 154mm wide x 16mm high (starts 8 mm from top and 10/15mm from left (for facing pages) Body: 154mm wide x 178mm high (starts 25mm from top and 10/15mm from left (for facing pages) Footer: 154mm wide x 4mm high (starts 205mm from top and 10/15mm from left (for facing pages) I have also ensured that any frames on the reference pages are no bigger than 154mm wide and 178mm high. I then selected all book docs and Format > Page Layout > Page Size and tried to create the custom page size of 177.8mm wide x 215.9mm high - this is essentially 7" x 8.5" (half a sheet of legal sized paper in landscape orientation). But when I clicked Set, I got the message "Resulting columns would be too short". I played around with everything and even selected Legal as the paper size - which it selected. So now I can set the width to 177.8mm (7") but it now refuses to accept anything shorter than 355.6 (14"). This is just stupid as the original document I used as the underlying template had a length of 279.4 (11", the same as Letter sized paper) so it should at least work with that. What am I missing?
