Parameters

SIZE and IS are optional words you can use for clarity in the long

 

form of the language coding.

USLETTER, USLEGAL, A3, A4, and B4 are the standard paper sizes you can use with the Xerox LPS.

Width (w) and length (l) represent the decimal paper size for printers that allow you to print forms in nonstandard paper sizes.

units indicates the unit of measure you want to use when specifying the size of the page. The units you can choose are INCHES, CENTIMETERS, DOTS, and XDOTS. You can use two decimal places when you specify inches and centimeters. You must express DOTS and XDOTS in integers.

Refer to the ªSupported paper sizesº appendix for more information.

Default

Inches, if you do not specify units.

If you do not specify the PAPER command and a predefined format is not defined in the GRID command, HFDL assumes

USLETTER.

Examples

Long form:

PAPER SIZE IS USLETTER;

PAPER SIZE IS 8.5 INCHES BY 11 INCHES;

Short form:

PAPER USLETTER;

LANDSCAPE/PORTRAIT command

Use the LANDSCAPE/PORTRAIT command to specify the orientation of the form, and the size and origin of the virtual page.

If you specified the predefined format in the GRID command, the form orientation is established automatically and you do not need to use the LANDSCAPE/PORTRAIT command.
