Default Need Help With Page Size

I have Office 365 installed on my MacBook Pro Sierra OS. I am writing a novel (self publishing) and the printing company requires that the manuscript be put into a pdf format and that the page size match the actual page size of the finished book. I want the page size to be 5.5 x 8.5.



When I use the drop down on the page size icon and click on the 5.5 x 8.5, only the first page shrinks to that size and all of the following pages remain the same size that they were. How do I get all of the pages to be the same size, i.e., 5.5 x 8.5?

Have you tried selecting the entire document before changing the page size? Your description suggests not and that there's a Section break between the first and subsequent pages.

Thanks for your response, macropod. No, I have not tried "selecting entire document before changing page size." How do I do that?

macropod, I figured it out. I went to the book, "MS Word 2016 for Dummies" and it gave me a short cut. All I had to do was to press control A, and all the pages were sized as I wanted them.
