Default Print preview does not match page layout

Do you have any other printer driver installed? There are a couple of generic
printers you can install, Publisher Image Setter and the Commercial PS printer.
Open the Printer Folder and install, scroll down to Generic. You should get a
different look on print preview if you select one of these.

I have a similar problem. I understand why it's happening, but I'm going to
email the document to my school where they can print it on the correct paper.
Is there a way to tell Publisher to ignore my printer settings and just show
me what it's going to look like?

I have a one page portrait newsletter that is 8.5"x25" (tabloid) in MS
Publisher 2007. However, when I print preview, it looks as though the
document is spread out on three 8x11 pages and there is significant white
space at the beginning and end of the document. When I printed to PDF using
Acrobat Distiller, it too was spread out on three pages with significant
white space on the top and bottom.

I would like to print to PDF so the one page newsletter as it is viewed in
Publisher looks the same when printed to PDF. How can this be fixed?

Any suggestions would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
