Cover Pages available in A4?

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: intel

I have noticed that in Word for Mac, the built-in Cover Pages for Word documents are all in US Letter.

Is there a replacement set of templates for A4 users? I have to adjust and save the US Letter template files in order to make them look better for A4 documents.

The Document Elements do not have a size, they adopt the size of the page
you add them to.

If you installed Office with the correct locality set active on your Mac,
you should have metric paper sizes throughout. I have here.

Ooops: My bad... I see what you mean now... They are not adjusting
correctly.

That would be a "bug". I will put that in for you...

Sorry about that.

Thank you very much for that, John! I thought something was a-miss here, and figured it was something much simpler.

Maybe I could try other paper sizes (B5?) and see how they behave! I didn't know the Cover Pages were actually dynamic entities.

Thank you for responding!

Whereas *I* didn't know that they were set at a specific size

They don't seem to work in ANY size other than US Letter. Someone stuffed
up somewhere :-( The smaller the paper size, the more disgusting the result
{Sigh!!}

Cheers
