I am using MS Word for Mac 2011 and I am trying to set a custom page size of 59.4 x 84 cm (I'm making a technical poster in A1). However, the program only allows me a working area of 59.4 cm square. BUT, when I check print preview, it acknowledges full size and I have a large gap at one end of the paper. Anyone have any idea how to fix this please?

I've just set up a page that size:

File
Page Setup
Paper Size
Manage Custom Sizes
+
then select width and height in millimetres

seemed to work OK for me
