Default Printing Elongated Multipage Newsletter

I created a newsletter designed to send as the body of an email (vs. as an
attachment). Following a suggestion on this board, I made it by elongating
the Publisher page size to about 20" so it is scrollable. (Looks and works
great!)

Now I need to print it. Print Preview shows the document as broken up into
multiple tiled pages and it will not print as one complete document.

I tried converting to print format, using continuous page breaks, converting
to web format, converting to PDF. Copying and pasting into Word. Nothing
works. Please help!

Do you have continuous paper capabilities in your printer driver? Some printers
have this capability. My old printer could print up to 44 inches.

If you are printing this on your personal printer it will tile.

This will be going to a lot of different people using a lot of different
printers so I can't format it to only print on my printer.

I took your advice from another thread and changed the paper size to
tabloid. Got me one step further - and got rid of the tile problem but weird
page breaks. Started grouping the various text boxes and graphics so I could
move them in blocks. Is it possible to manually insert page breaks?

Any other way to add a page break? ctrl+shift+enter isn't doing anything in
the document.

You need to have some linked text boxes so the text has some place to go.
