Page layout

The Page Layout dialog lets you customize how your reports will be printed on the page. When you make changes to the page layout, it only affects the report type you are currently working on. For example, if you change the margins or header for a pedigree chart, those changes do not affect the margins or headers for family group sheets. The Page Layout dialog has two tabs, Page and Header/Footer.
