Go to the File menu and select Page Setup. You can change the orientation of your paper and the paper size here.

I think you meant 'printer setup.'
Works for me ...
Thanx!

No. In Crystal XI it's "Page Setup".

What size paper are you set to use? If it's "Letter", try setting it to "Legal" which will give you a lot more room. It might also help to play with the font size, and possibly the font itself, to see how you can get it to fit.
Do all 25 fields have to fit across in one row? If not, you could also do some creative design changes to display it in multiple rows.

I posted a solution that worked for me in another thread
The problem shows up if your printer is not capable of larger paper sizes. I have a number of customers that print reports on ledger size paper, but I did not have a printer on my system that print that same size. So I was unable to increase the design areas to match my reports needs. I went through all the steps others have mentioned until I stumbled across this.
My solution was to 'trick' CR into thinking I did have a printer that would print the larger sizes as outlined in the other thread. I have not had a problem since.
If someone has a better solution, I would implement it, but until then this work around has spared me much frustration.
Regards
John W.

Similar issue. Using Crystal 10 to design a simple report with four columns of data coming from the same file (i'e', one line of data per job). The report is 21 pages usina Arial 10 font. Is there a "Shrink to Fit" setting whereby if I add more data, CR will automatically shrink the font to fit the columns across the page, show more rows of data per page, and decrease the size of the report? Switching to Landscape will solve my width problem, but will ADD more pages to the report.
Thanks!
