I have a lot of 4x6 formatted recipes. These are landscape format. The printer that just died wanted the short edge on the right side of the paper [left margin was 5.25 and right was 0.5] The replacement printer [for now] wants the left margin 0.5 and the right 5.25. How do I automate the process of changing the page format for each of the files?

So you are printing 4x6 (inch??) documents on quite different-sized stock?

o Open one of the documents.
o Create a new page *style* to suit your new needs.
o Save that document.

For each further document:
o Open the document.
o Open the Styles and Formatting window.
o Click the "New Style from Selection" drop-down and Load Styles... .
o In the Load Styles dialogue, tick Pages.
o Select From File... and browse to and open the first file.
o Select Page Styles in the Styles and Formatting window.
o Double-click the new page style to apply it to appropriate pages.
o Save the document.

But are you sure you cannot teach your new printer to accept the old arrangement?

I trust this helps.
