That sounds similar, except since my copy of Adobe and computer is set up for en-US culture my fallback is Letter size not A4 (it's hard to even find a store that sells A4 paper in the US). But that does sound like the same behavior, I made a custom form, gave it my own name and size of 9x12/in,

Update... This worked for me, the key apparently is to call the form "archA" which apparently is some standard name that Adobe knows as being a 9x12 document size. I initially created another 9x12 form the only difference being the name "Concert" and Adobe still uses a document size of 8.5x11 wi

Thanks, Yes, somehow I remember the name does need to be called "archA" in paper.scm and the form name in Windows has to match also. When I get home I'm going to call the name "archA" I believe Adobe will recognize that as a valid form name. I believe I called it "ArchitecturalA" in my file and

I made all those changes but that is not working for me. When I open the PDF in Adobe and view the "Print" panel the "document size" says 8.5x11 and "paper size" says 9x12. So if I use "Page Scaling: None" things are not right. They should both say 9x12 so that there is no need to rescale the p

Rick, All you have to do is change your paper.scm. That's all I did, and I get 9x12 PDFs just fine. All you have to do after that is find a printer that will print 9x12 paper or go to your local copy shop. I've attached my paper.scm file. Look at the section that gives paper dimensions. The li

Scanning the archive I determined that the file called "framework-ps.scm" needs to be changed in order to use std 9x12 manuscript paper. Does anyone have a copy of this file that is already modified for 9x12 and will work with version 2.8.5 (IOW not break lp)? The bug was that the pdf header was

Hello, I've been away from LP for a few months, so I decided to upgrade to 2.8.5. I added 9x12 inch paper to paper.scm, however LP is still not recognizing all the real estate available to it. Also when I go to print and tell Adobe the paper is 9x12, Adobe still thinks the document size is 8.5x
