Hi and welcome students in this Microsoft Excel 2016 tutorial I'm going to show you how to change page orientation and page size let's get started so the first way that I'm going to do this is show you what it is currently set up as default if you go to the file tab print button you'll see that by default the page size is 8 and a half by 11 meaning eight and a half inches wide by 11 inches tall this is your standard letter size paper next also notice that it is it is in portrait orientation which is taller rather than it is wide the first way that we could change the orientation is by going to the page Layout tab which is right here the page setup group and then if you go right here to orientation you can switch it from portrait to landscape and that's one way to do it another way to do it is by going to the file tab print button and changing it right here from landscape to portrait or portrait to landscape either one works fine it just depends on what you're doing on something that has a little bit wider of a table like this one landscape is probably better because they could fit everything within the page next I'm going to show you how to change your page size page size is also in the page Layout tab and it's also in the page setup group it's right here where it says size by default it'll be 8 and a half by 11 which is your standard letter size paper but if you're using a longer sheet like legal you can click there to change it to legal or you can even click on size and make it an envelope size really whatever you're doing inside of Excel it has an option for you if you want to see all of your options you could click right down here on more paper sizes and then you can view from a list of sizes that are included within this menu as well next I'm going to go into the print area in the file tab could a print and you could also see that you could change your size right in here I currently have it as legal and you can see the extra inches on the right side now I could turn it back to the letter I could also change it's in an envelope I'll just choose one of these envelope options and you can see how it affects the actual page itself so this is an easy way to tell if all of your content actually will fit on the page by changing the paper size or the orientation and that you and then you will see exactly how it'll look when it's printed so hopefully this video has helped you out if it has please give it a thumbs up.
