Selecting the Paper Size

For different documents, you have to use papers of different sizes such as for a greeting card, nametag, or an envelope. Word allows you to set the paper size to a number of different types of standard paper sizes, as well as your custom setting.

Paper size is the length of each page. You can choose the predefined paper sizes or customize the paper size.
