Controlling horizontal overflow

If the controls on a document extend beyond the width of a single page, the controls that overflow are printed on the next page. You can change this default setting to allow the overflow to print on the same page. In other words, instead of printing the controls left to right on multiple pages, the controls are printed immediately below each other on the same page. The Horizontal overflow setting applies to all sections of the document because it is set at the document level.

The changes are applied only to the exported PDF and printed version of the document. Compare this feature with Repeat information horizontally.
