    Printing FCM

    Hello all! I appreciate all your hard work that goes into the magazine. I was trying to print out the magazines and keep them at my house for reading materials but noticed that the layout of them changed from standard 8.5"x11" to 11"x8.5" (Landscape instead of portait). Is there any way to get them in portait? Or was it decided to just publish them in landscape from now on?

    It was decided waaaaaay back (about a year ago) that most people preferred the landscape format as it fills the screen and requires no scrolling up/down.

    You can still print the magazine in landscape format, just check that your page settings are set to landscape before printing from your PDF viewer.

    The overall design needs lots of work, Now, I just wanted to let you know that landscape is most preferable one.

    the design is purposely kept simple to allow FCM to be a small download (not everyone, myseld included, has fast broadband) and display quickly on slow machines.
