Start with a preset
. The dialog box's Preset drop-down menu lets you choose the gener-
al kind of document you want. If you want to create a file for printing, pick from the
menu's second group. The third group contains choices for onscreen viewing. Once you
make a selection here, the next menu—Size—changes to show you suitable options for
your choice.
Figure 2-6
shows how this works.
TIP
If you're into scrapbooking, you'll be pleased to know that Elements offers some
standard scrapbook page sizes as presets.
▪
Enter the numbers yourself
. If you prefer, you can ignore the Preset and Size menus
and just type what you want in the Width and Height boxes instead. The drop-down
menus next to these boxes let you choose inches, pixels, centimeters, millimeters, points,
picas, or columns as your unit of measurement.
