How do I increase the size of my ad in Publisher?

[pubscout]

I'm new to Publisher, and I've created an ad, but when I send it or print it,
it's far too small. How do I e-mail it so my recipient will see a readable
ad? Or print it in a larger view? I've saved it as a PDF file but when I
print it, the ad is only 2 incehs square and unreadable. Same thing if I send
it in an e-mail. Help, please.

Thanks.

The fonts come with the ad selection template. It appears that the
advertisement is just 2 inches square, including any pictures or clip art I
inserted. Changing the page size does nothing to the size of the ad.

It appears as though the ad template is what's causing the problem. I fail to
understand how a 2x2 inch ad can contain and display the amount of
information that the template calls for. When I'm working on the ad, it's
fine, but the view size is over 230%. When it's e-mailed, it's 2x2 inches and
unreadable.

I did find a template that is 2X4, but not much better.

How can I change the ad template size to a readable level?

I assume you are using Publisher 2007. In previous versions when you selected
the advertisement template and changed the page layout, Publisher automatically
re-sized the publication for you. All this good stuff was left out of 2007
either by mistake or design.

You need to go to page setup and setup a custom size layout. Then change all the
objects in your ad to fit.

Thanks, Mary. That seems to have worked, though it is somewhat more
time-intensive. I always thought the purpose of upgrades was the opposite...

Alan, How much time do you spend browsing the newsgroups to promote your
product? You are a spammer...
