Change default print size

[Jolene]

How do I change the default print size? I am looking to change the size when I select File -> New. I current default is width 8.33 inches and height 6.25 inches. I'd like to change the default print size. I have 4.0.16 version installed.

Question: Are you going to print something?

 

If so, then you might want to change the dpi (pixels per inch.) 96 dpi will give you a small print; 300 dpi, a bigger one with better resolution (if you're going to print the image.) Then, you change the image size if needed.

Print size is a guide to the density (DPI) setting. It is there to help you figure out what dimensions your image should be i.e. to produce a print of quality z (DPI) when you have image dimensions x & y.

Print size does not indicate what size the printed version will be UNLESS you print at the same DPI.
