Restore the “factory settings” of your Nisus New File
If, for any reason you want to begin anew (Spring Cleaning, and all that) and, after many
modifications, you want to use the formatting and file which Nisus Writer Express ships as your
Nisus New File, the process is simple.
▶ Click Restore Factory Settings in the Advanced portion of the New File preferences pane.
Figure 83 on page 97, Figure 84 on page 98 and Figure 87 on page 100 illustrate these settings.
Setting paper size and margins
While an increasing amount of documents are distributed electronically, without paper, and read on
screen, periodically you may need to commit your document to paper. The dimensions of your
paper are determined in the Page Setup dialog and the margins of the document within the limits of
that page are determined on a “per section” basis using the tools of Nisus Writer Express.
The Page Setup dialog you see is entirely dependent on the printer you have. The following
explanation uses an Epson Stylus COLOR 740 as the “default” printer driver.
When the Page Setup dialog appears, the dialog displays information and choices specific to the
printer to which you have connected your Macintosh. Use this to customize specific printer options.
Set the preferred paper size for all your documents
In Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and later you can set the paper size for all your documents.
1. Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
2. Click Print & Fax in the Hardware row.
3. In the Printing portion of the panel, choose the format you want from the Default paper size
in Page Setup pop-up menu.
