Re: Paper size

Chad,

Don't specify paper type. Using a predefined paper type will establish width 
and depth settings that will overide whatever you specify in those parameters. 
Instead, let the paper-size parameter in your declare-layout specify the actual 
dimensions, i.e. paper-size=(14.5in, 12in). Also, don't use the page-size 
command.

HTH,
Peter

Hi all,
Im using an IBM line printer and have been printing an spf on to US standard
fanfold.  Our printer suppliers have now decided they cant produce that size
paper any more (dont ask!!) and have supplied us with paper an inch longer.
Although I can set the paper size in several different ways manually in my
report and from the preferences in visual sqribe the spf is still  printing
with the old paper size.  I know its because Im choosing US standard Fanfold
as my paper type when Im printing but I thought (hopefully and foolishly)
setting the paper as longer in sqribe might have overrided it.
The new paper size is 14.5 x 12 inches.  Anybody got any ideas?
I increased my page-size in my sqr from 60 132  to  68 132, but it still
prints as tho the paper is 11 inches high.
The printer driver is IBM proprinter XL III

tia.

Chad.
