Page setup not taking into account in Compile

Scrivener Scrivener for macOS

Hello,

Here we go again for that question: trying to compile to A4, and despite my doing the Page Setup thing, and setting it to A4, the damn thing keeps outputting US Letter. Happens with PDF, Word, Etc.

Is there a workaround?

Thanks.

Please post a screenshot of the Page Settings pane from the Compile Format Editor. I’ll check your trust level to make sure you can.

Geez, brain fart, the problem was between the chair and the keyboard.
I had effectively done the Page Setup in the File menu, but had failed to repeat in the Page Settings in Compile editor.

Sorry for the trouble.

Happy to help.

Some of the supplied Compile Formats use the project default, some don’t. If you’re getting unexpected results (for anything, not just page size), actually looking at the Compile settings is always a good first step.
