FAQ
Does page width switching apply only to the current document?
- A page width change made from the lower-right switch mainly applies to the document you are currently viewing.
- If you only need a temporary reading adjustment, use that switch directly.
- If you want future new documents to use a fixed width, change the default page width in File → Document Settings → Personal Preferences.
Why did I change the default page width, but some documents did not change?
- First check whether that document was already adjusted manually.
- A document with its own manual width adjustment may keep that document-specific display setting.
- The default page width is more relevant to new documents and documents opened for the first time without a separate manual adjustment.
What kinds of documents are more suitable for page width settings?
- Long text documents are often easier to read in Standard Width.
- Documents with wide tables, images, or broader content can work better in Wider or Full Width.
- You can switch between reading comfort and content visibility based on the task.
