I made 110 pages at size 6x9 book and was wondering if I can change the size? I want to make it in multiple sizes so I can't seem to find it on youtube, but I might be missing it. Does anyone know if a good and easy video that can teach me, publisher?

Hi, click to one page and to: layout setting (or so, above left). There you can change one or all layout pages in the same relations x to y (or another r.). lars

I think he meant 'Spread Setup...'

This will change the dimensions of all pages (if you select 'All Spreads' in the to left of the 'Spread Setup' window).

If you have master pages you have to adjust them to the same size.

I hope this helps

PS: There is a basic video tutorial on how to setup a document that also mentions that you can alter its dimensions at any time. See here: https://affinity.serif.com/de/tutorials/publisher/desktop/video/286534652

You need to have the move tool selected and have nothing selected in order to see the Spread Setup in the Context Toolbar. Otherwise go to File > Spread Setup.

Make sure you have All Spreads selected, and if you want to have the aspect ratio changed unlock the Dimensions.

Well, I think we know what you meant!

Thank you all. I did find it and made it a different size. I was hoping that all the items on the page would be adjusted to. So I guess the only way to fix is to go through every page and adjust it:((( Thank you   If there is a different way please let me know.

Hi @Diane Window 10 Desktop AD,

there is an option in the Spread Setup dialog. Look for 'Scaling > Rescale'. But this will most likely distort your text if the ratio is not 1:1. You can try and see if this works. You can undo this operation.

If you work set up your layout with master pages beforehand you only would need to adjust things in one place and all is replicated to every page.

Look at this video on the topic:

Please note that 'Edit > Content' detached from master pages in text frames was not available at the time this video was recorded.

Cheers,

Thank you, Dominik, I will watch and try and let you know if it worked. I am thinking next time starting with larger 1st and then go smaller to see what happens. It is all learning for me:) With people like you and above I will get it, thanks again.

Hi @Diane Window 10 Desktop AD,

believe me it's learning for many of us, too. At least for me
