By default, when you create a legend by selecting Add Legend on the LEGEND tab, the resulting Legend Designer window's title is "Legend Designer for" and the table names of the map layers you chose to include in the legend. (Deleting a map legend after does not remove its table name from the Legend Designer window title.) You can specify a window title at the time you create a legend with the Create Legend wizard.

To specify the title of a Legend Designer window:

  1. On the LEGEND tab, in the Content group, click Add Legend.
  2. In the Create Legend Choose Layers screen, select the map layers to include in your legend and then click Next.
  3. In the Create Legend Choose Layers screen, in the Window Title text box, type the title that you want to display for your Legend Designer window.
  4. Select the Landscape radial button to change the orientation of the Legend Designer window.
  5. Click Finish, or Next to continue to the next screen and finish applying settings.

The Legend Designer window opens with your title. If you select Landscape for the orientation, then the Legend Designer window's width will be more than its height.
