In this episode, we will change the A5 flyer to A4, then create a landscape version using Adjust Layout so that frames and text adjust accordingly. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe InDesign series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Requests to change the size often come up. Rather than rearranging everything, InDesign provides Document Setup and Adjust Layout. Open the A5 flyer file. It contains a photo, title, text, and color blocks with a 12 mm marine border.
We will change it to A4 size without redoing everything. Select File > Adjust Layout.
This dialog changes the page size and adjusts its contents simultaneously.
Select A4 as the page size, then check Autoadjust Margins to Page Size Changes and Adjust Font Size so that the font size also increases.
Click OK. The page becomes A4, the marine border increases proportionally, and all frames scale accordingly. The photo still fills its frame, the text increases in size, and the layout remains the same. Another way is File > Document Setup.
Here, we can change the width, height, and orientation.
Click the Landscape icon, and the width and height swap. Unlike Adjust Layout, Document Setup only changes the page, and its contents are not automatically adjusted. Since the contents do not adjust, we need to manually rearrange the frames.
Position the photo to fill half the left side of the page, then move the text block to the right half. Use the marine guide as a reference.
Save each version with a different name using Save As, for example flyer A4 and flyer landscape.
This way, the original version remains safe in case the client wants to return to the original size.
Done. We have changed the size using Adjust Layout, which also adjusts the content. Change orientation using Document Setup, and manually tidy up the landscape version. In the next episode, we will arrange objects within layers. Need a magazine, book, brochure, product catalog, company profile, or annual report design?
