How do I fix numbers rounding up on page setup.

Creating files and advertisements and trying to set page setup to 8 x 5.125 and keeps rounding up all my numbers up. LIKE 5.125 becomes 5.13 and It has to be exact.

Please advise. Much appreciated


  • Full Page: 8" wide x 10.5" tall
  • Half Page: 8" wide x 5.125" tall
  • Quarter Page: 3.875" wide x 5.125" tall
  • Eighth Page: 3.875" wide x 2.4375" tall

As I said use points because that is Pages' built in measurement unit.


Menu > Pages > Preferences > Rulers > Points


There are no mm, and cm is worse because this is "Designed by Apple in California". The conversions are wrong.


As I also said, it may not be displaying 3 decimal places but is probably using them. It is annoying.


Menu > Pages > Provide Pages Feedback
