on the width of the program window. For information about changing the appearance of
the ribbon to match our screen images, see “Modifying the Display of the Ribbon” at the
beginning of this book.
Tip Throughout this chapter, we work with letter-size publications, but you can choose
any size you want. You might want to try a different size for each exercise to see some
of the available options.
- Save the publication as TextBox in your Chapter30 practice file folder.

- Move the cross-hair pointer over the blank page, and when the pointer is slightly
to the right of the left margin guide and slightly below the top margin guide, hold
down the mouse button, and drag to the right and down, without releasing the
mouse button.
Don’t release the mouse button yet.
