Default Changing Default Page Size?

I was messing with some of the blank publications in Publisher 2003 and
decided to exit out. When I started with a 'new' publication, the default
size had changed from 8.5x11 to something like 8.25x15.

Is there any way I can change it back, reset the defaults or something so
that full page is back to 8.5x11?

Before anyone else suggests, yes, I've tried the Custom Setting but it has
to be set each time I start up Publisher.

Thanks in advance!

============================
If you go to...Control Panel / Printers...
do you have your default paper size
set to...Letter 8.5x11...in your printer
preferences?

Well, it wasn't. But the change didn't occur 'til I was messing about within
Publisher itself. However, I did change it back to letter size, applied the
change, and for good measure rebooted the computer.

Still coming up with a default full page of 8.25x15.

There may be more than one place in Printer
Properties that allow paper size to be selected.
Change them all.

Anyway...if you have printer preferences set to
Letter...open a project in Pub2003 and go to...
File / Print...on the Print screen...click the
Preperties button / Advanced... and be sure
Letter is selected.

Now try to print and see if the paper size
changes to Letter...this should reset it.

Good luck.

Got to thinking last night after I followed your suggestions; had to reset it
to letter size within Publisher itself and apply them. It's fine now. Weird
that it didn't happen 'til I started to mess with other publications types.
Glad it worked out, though.

Thanks for your help.
