Re: ruler settings

Good question. In Visio, you can make a drawing as large as possible. The
outline of the page indicates if your drawing is within the the page
boundaries. If you overlap the background area, that section of the drawing
will not print.

Using zoom, you should be able to control the amount of background space
that is visible. When I work on drawings, I'm zoomed to 100% and rarely see
enough of the page to see the edges.
