For some reason, my schematic diagram grew on its own to be larger than the page. How do I shrink it back to size?
All 10 pages of my schematic are on 8.5 x 11 paper (size A). Everything was as it should be (i.e. fit on the paper) until I booted up (Ubuntu) and opened Kicad 7 to work in the pcb layout just now.
That is a new one to me… if you look in the backups folder (inside your project folder), do you have a recent backup that looks right?
Try going to File > Page Settings and reestablishing the paper size you want.
Try changing it to something else then changing back. Also it’s hard to read the title block but it looks like you’re using v8, not v7?
OK. Pilot error. I opened an earlier version of the project, and this page is actually A2, not A. I had mistakenly ticked the Export to other Sheets box when I was updating the Comments on the pages, so the A2 page became A. I changed the page back to A2 in the latest project folder, and all is goo with the world.
Thanks for your fast responses to my question!

Ah ok what I thought was 8.0.5 is actually E.D.A. Either my eyes are going or the screenshot is too low res.
