Global Margin Change

[John Smith]

MS Publisher 2002

I've been given a 70 page document with two columns per page and want to
change the margin for every page. Can I make a change in one place that will
change the margin on all pages? Changing the layout on the Master Page seems
to change only the pink margin guides and has no effect on the text on the
pages.

Can margins or text box widths be set in styles so I can change a style and
get a global change in text box width?

TIA

This is how Publisher is designed. The whole point is that it just changes
the location of the guides and does not hem you in to having your page
aligned to the guides.

No, but you can write a macro to take every text box and resize it.
