Remarks

This is the physical size of the layout page, not the coordinate-system extent of the map within the layout. This size is set within the ArcMap software's Layout function. For example, a typical page size in the United States would be 8.5 by 11 inches. The extent normally has the XMin and YMin set to zero (0), with the XMax and YMax as the page width and height. The units are specified by the Units property of LayoutInfo.

The layout should be printed at the physical size specified in LayoutInfo. Other sizes may not create a desirable appearance. If other layout sizes are needed, a new ArcMap document can be created from the original MXD, and the layout changed to the desired size.
