About This Feature

Overview

Page Width is a document view setting in WPS Office for Mac that helps you adjust how wide a page appears inside the window for different reading and layout needs. It supports quick switching between Standard Width, Wider, and Full Width from the lower-right corner of the document window, and it also lets you set a default page width in document settings for your account.

Core tasks include:

  • Switch page width quickly for reading, reviewing, or checking wide content.
  • Set a default page width for new documents and first-time document openings.

This feature is useful for long-form reading, documents with tables or images, and keeping a consistent viewing preference.
