[comp.text] Pagemaker for tabloid output

chiu@dsl.cis.upenn.edu (Timothy Z. Chiu) (07/08/88)

I'm currently using Pagemaker 1.0 on a Macintosh to do text
typesetting for a newsletter.  I'm using the tabloid size 
configuration (11" x 17").  Eventually the output will
go to a Linotronic machine for a camera ready copy, but right
now I'd like to be able to preview it on a laserwriter.

I have tried using the Tile command on version 1.0 but can't seem
to get it work right and I can't upgrade to 2.0 or 3.0 because
those versions are rather large and would require a harddisk and
and I'm trying to keep everything on 800k Mac disks.

Anyone have any tips on getting Tile to work with 1.0 and
a laserwriter?  Right now when using Tile I only get the 
top half of the page and not the bottom half, and the margins
on the output are also messed up.  The page starts too far up and
too far to the left, so that the upper left hand corner runs
off the page.  I do not have the original manual for
Pagemaker since it was misplaced long ago.

Thanks for any help.
