I was planning to export the .tm file to .pdf file. Even if I change
the paper size to 12x9 in .tm file, when I export it to pdf, it still
is 8.26x11.69 . So the above solution does not work for me.

For people reading the archives, I got around by choosing Document ->
Page -> Orientation -> Landscape mode instead of protrait mode without
changing anything else. Then the final exported pdf file looks very
good on the projector.
