wls Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Go to open a New Document. Select A5 (as an example). Looking down at the Dimensions, I can't visualize how big A5 is in units of Millimeters (even though that may be the unit I'd like to use once I have selected my document) Click Document Units and change it to InchesNote the Dimensions area now shows the size in inches -- ok, got it, I can visualize how big that is; but it's not quite what I want, .....so... Select A6 (as an example) Look down at the Dimensions again... whoa, they're back in Millimeters! I thought I just changed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 The units are implied by the kind of preset you're using. The European sizes (A0 to A10) use millimeters. The US sizes (ANSI) use inches. If you want to be sure, you can simply specify your own size to begin with, making it a custom preset.
