Hi Costa,
thanks for this report. I already applied patch for the other bug
report, but I have a question about this one: why do you want to also
change "centimetres" into "centimeters" and "millimetres" into
"millimeters"?

>From what I understand the actual spelling is correct (British) english
while you suggest to change it into american english. I browsed the
debian policy and did not find any mention of the language we should use
in manuale pages. I also find this interesting thread about web pages:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2003/04/msg00267.html

Today I am appling just a part of your patch and leave "centimetres" and
"millimetres" as they are. I will close this bug with the next libpaper
upload.

Thanks,
Giuseppe
