Microsoft Word allows you to setup a variety of pre-configured page sizes, which can be selected with a few clicks of your mouse. Selecting various format lets your document conform to whatever size paper on which you are printing. By default, Word uses the 8.5- inch-by-11- inch "letter" size, but you can easily select the 11-inch-by-17-inch "ledger" size.
