  3. Next, enter the Form Name and the desired page size dimensions and click Add Form.
    Important: Please ensure you have the correct unit of measure selected. This will either be in metric (cm) or English (in). If the entered size does not appear after adding the new form, it is often because the size is too large, usually as a result of entering the dimension in an incorrect unit of measure.
