This may or may not be of help.

Are you sure it says "11 x 17" and not "17 x 11"

Windows may not match a "17 x 11", but if you define your own and format a "11 x 17" might work.

The key is how the software interprets the printer driver in regard to paper length and width.

IE: I don't know what a 17" wide piece of paper is so I won't do it vs I know what a 17" long piece of paper is and I will print in landscape.

It is an issue which a friend of mine (Thanks Marc) came to with a document that would not print an Excel spreadsheet in landscape properly.

Hope it helps

I *suspect* the problem is that LO has a paper size named "Tabloid" and
the printer dialogue has the same size paper listed as "11x17".  If I
set LO's paper size to "Legal" and the printer to the same: It sticks.
If I try to do the same with "Tabloid" vs. "11x17": It does not.

MS Office refers to it as "11x17", btw.

Is there a way to define a paper size to LO?
