Publisher ... How do I change measurements to INCHES?

Anonymous

Hello -

I normally use Centimetres as my default measurement, but for a current project, I need everything to be in INCHES.

I couldn't find where to change it, so I clicked on the help button and was told that I could change it in the FILE / OPTIONS / ADVANCED.

Problem is, I have no "OPTIONS" button to click on. I only have Home, New, Open, Info, Save, Save As, Print, Share, Export and Close.

So... where do I change this measurement? AND why does the help system say this to me? Surely they should keep this updated at least?

I own/subscribe annually to 365. My software is current and up to date.

Thanks in advance ... Jan

    Can you see anything on the left bottom of the planner ?

    Have you installed the most recent version of Office/Publisher?

    Which version of Windows are you running?

    Hi there, thank you for the reply. I run Windows 10 home edition and I have Office 365 (paid subscription annually).

    BOTH are current and up to date as Microsoft allows me to be.

    I have never denied any update from Microsoft.

    I will try to attach screen grabs of the version info.

    Thanks

    Hi and thanks for the reply. As I mentioned in my OP, I do have the FILE menu, and when I click on it, all I see is ... Home, New, Open, Info, Save, Save As, Print, Share, Export and Close. There is no OPTIONS BUTTON as described in the HELP reply.
    I will try to attach screen grabs for the issue.

    Thanks again.

    Hi JanHow ,

    I'm Mukesh and I will be happy to help you out with your question.

    There must be File tab and if this missing then most probably there seems to be an issue with your App.

    Try right clicking the toolbar area and making sure the correct toolbars are checked. Or choose customize and make sure Menu Bar is checked and/or Options tab and reset standard menus.

    If an Office application working correctly, sometimes restarting it will fix the problem. If that doesn’t work, you can try repairing it. When you’re done, you might need to restart your computer.

    I hope this information helps. If you have any questions please let me know and I will be glad to help you out.
