Publisher 2007 Page Set-up & Document Size Selection

[Ivee]

I find the new Page Set-up more confusing than helpful. Having to navigate
thru all the page sizes and configurations (especially in picture form) is
very time consuming. Finding that information from past docments has been
added only adds to the confusion. Setting up the page again is not hard, and
certainly easier than trying to find what I have done in the past among all
the choices. If this must remain, please include a drop-down window, as has
been used in the past, of the basic page sizes, along with the familiar
choice of Portrait or Landscape, and the ability to set my own choice of
margins - in other words the whole page set-up system as it's always been.
This could be presented as choosing between "Traditional Set-up" and
"Pictorial (or whatever) Set-up."

If you type letter in the page setup search, it will come back with both the
portrait and landscape setup. (It is slow)
I haven't figured out why page sizes keep duplicating.

Thanks Mary. I tried that (I assume you meant template search), and at least
it shows only the letter selections (however many there may be). It seems
that MS wanted it to look like they made more changes in Publisher. Only
thing is - this wasn't an improvement. I do find this site a treasure of
info. Many thanks.
