After selecting a presets group, presets thumbnails appear in the central window. Choose any preset and, if necessary, adjust the following parameters:
Orientation. Set the orientation of the document - Portrait 
or Landscape 
. Portrait orients the image vertically (height is greater than width), while Landscape orients the image horizontally (width is greater than height).
The size of the document can be set manually in the Width 
and Height 
fields.
The units of measurement are listed in the Unit 
drop-down list (pixels, inches, centimeters, millimeters, points, and picas).
The Resolution 
parameter determines the number of pixels in an image (level of detail) and is measured in pixels per inch (ppi).
Use the Background option to set the color of the background layer. A transparent background will be selected when clicking on the icon 
. Click the color plate to set the color background in the color selection dialog.
