- I have a similar question.
-
- In Page Maker, you can change the physical page's origin by dragging the
- corner of the 'frame' (rulers) to wherever you want. That allows us,
- for example, to print a 11x17 page as two 8.5x11 pages in landscape mode.
- However, I haven't found (in manuals and FAQ) any way that would let me
- do this in Frame Maker.
-
- any help is appreciated
