    You'll see this option in the "Views" panel near the beginning of the toolbar. This change will make your document pageless and automatically change the width of the page depending on what device you're using.
    • For example, the page width on a wide-screen monitor will be different than the page width on a phone's screen. [1]
    • To undo this change, return to the View menu and select Print Layout .
