Re: Autmatically change View

Bob, thank you very much for the quick reply. My problem is, I have a letter
size page and then the next is tabloid. Upon my customer's request, I need
to know how to get Word to "automatically" resize the view the page width
when you go from page to page. The letter size is page width; jump down to
tabloid and it automatically resizes to that page width. Similar to what
happens if you are in print preview...it resize each page for you. Is THIS
possible?

Hi Elizabeth,

If you're in Word 2007 you can use View=>Zoom=>Page width or
View=>Zoom=>One Page, depending on whether you want to see the document width or literally the whole page. You can also right click
the status bar to turn on 'Zoom' and click on the percentage zoom choice on the status bar to open the dialog

In Word 2003, the zoom drop down has those choices.

In either version you can also assign a keyboard shortcut to a particular zoom setting. In Word 2007
Office Button=>Word Options=>Customize=>Keyboard=>View
and set one for ViewZoomWholePage or ViewZoomPageWidth

In Word 2003, same settings but through Tools=>Customize=>Keyboard

You can also set a default zoom setting with the information here.

As in Adobe Acrobat/Reader, I would like to be able to scroll down from a
letter sized document to an 11 X 17 sized *** and have it automatically
resize to fit on the screen. Any suggestions? Can this be done? Macro
maybe? >>
