File | Page Setup refers to the drawing area on the screen. This can be set to any size up to 240 inches. In general, the page size should be set to the same size as your printer's page size.
When maps are originally imported, the scale of the map is set in relation to the page setup. In this way, the size of the map is optimized so it best fits on the specified page.
The outline of the page is normally shown in the map window. If the page outline is not seen make sure the Show page rectangle option is checked in the User Interface page of the Options.

The following options are available in the Page Setup dialog:
The Paper size options control the size of the paper. Click the down arrow next to the paper size to select different paper dimensions. For custom paper sizes, change the paper size in the Width and Height boxes.
Orientation sets the on-screen page in Portrait or Landscape mode.
