Custom Page size and Microsoft Word, Word 2000, and Word 2003

When you specify a PostScript custom page size in the Paper Size box in the advanced printer prop- erties for a supported printer, the custom size setting appears to be ignored if you have configured Microsoft Word to use the PostScript Custom Page Size setting. Word defaults to the default size of 8.5 by 11 inches.

Resolution

If you want to use PostScript custom page sizes that are supported by a printer, the only way to make them work correctly in Word is to add custom forms to Windows and then to choose those form names in Word. By using this method, the PostScript Page Size setting in Word is ignored, and the newly added forms are used instead.

Create a custom form for printing to a non-standard paper size in Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.

To create a custom form, follow these steps:

„Navigate to CONTROL PANEL, double click PRINTERS.

„On the FILE menu, click SERVER PROPERTIES.

„On the FORMS tab, select the CREATE A NEW FORM check box. Enter the settings for the new form.

NOTE: When you set up a custom form, the margins cannot go beyond the confines of the specifications for the installed printer driver. Printable regions must be adhered to with regard to margin limits for the printer and driver in use.

„Click SAVE FORM or OK
