Use A4 for common international office documents and Letter for many North American workflows. A3 and Tabloid suit wide reports; A5 works for compact handouts.
Landscape can protect wide tables, but it also changes reading rhythm and printing expectations.
Reserve space deliberately
Margins protect content from printer limits and create room for headers and footers. Very narrow margins can place repeating text too close to the page edge.
Test the widest content block and confirm that the printable body remains large enough after all four margins are applied.
- Start around 36 points for general documents.
- Increase margins for binding or annotations.
- Use landscape for genuinely wide content.
- Avoid edge-to-edge output unless the destination supports it.
Use headers, footers and page numbers as navigation
Keep repeating text short. Add the document name, confidentiality label or section identity only when it helps the reader.
Page X of Y numbering is useful for review packages because it makes missing pages easier to detect.
