About Sharon MacGregor
Expertise
I use Indesign on a daily basis for work, and at home in my more creative ventures. I can answer pretty much any type of question relating to production, design, page layout, and new features of CS3. I work on a PC (yes I know that is rare), so I am more familiar with the PC commands than mac, but I know that more often than not, the Ctril button on the PC is the same as the command button on the Mac, so they are the same!

Experience
I've been working in this field since 1988. Started out when they were still doing pasteup and using a wax machine :) Have worked on both Mac and PC on several programs, but my present employer uses PCs and I bought a PC for home so I could work at home. Right now, I work on educational/technical textbooks. I have experience with magazines, newspapers, corporate identity, page layout, and general design.

Education/Credentials
I have a BA in psychology with a minor in art, and am working towards an MA in Learning and technology integration (using computers to teach).

Answer
First choose the Layout option from the top menu bar, scroll down to and choose "Layout Adjustment" -- a menu box will come up, select "enable layout adustment".  I would leave all of the options checked except ignore Ruler Guide alignment.

Then, choose File from the top menu, scroll down to then choose "Document Setup", and a window will come up that will allow you to change your page size, which will apply for your whole document.

Layout adjustment should change all the elements of your page to be proportunal to your new size, but manually check every page that it didn't distort your graphics or type to an odd size - as sometimes automatic functions do weird things.
