I can �t see why A4 should be a problem. I �m American, so I use letter size, but A4 is close enough unless the margins are absurdly narrow.
The MEMORY size of the document is more important for ESLP purposes. Worksheets need to be 500 KB or less. (Presentations need to be 2 MB or less.) Look at Computer, find your file, and you should be able to see how much memory your worksheet uses. |

A4 is exactly the size! It �s the size of a standard ws which is very convenient. When people upload a ws in other formats like legal or letter, it is really frustrating to try and resize it and when you save it in pdf to avoid the pain of resizing it, there �s always a picture which is off or the font is too small for students to read. If you left margins, that would help the preview of your ws.

Thanks Moody Moody and ueslteacher, I know that the memory is more important, however my last worsheets became too small in the view of esl printables and I don�t know why...ueslteacher I really like the A4...

Hi!
I checked the wss and I understand your problem. I �m not sure, but did you group the page elements? If you don �t, they have the bad habit of moving after you upload them... When they move, they may go out of the page, up, or concentrate in the center, as I think happened with your wss.
Try to group everything (Word Art, Textboxes, clipart, etc...) and update the documents.
Hope it helps.
Have a nice evening!
