Default Word cannot see customized paper size from printer's driver

Hi Robert
Thank you for your answer

I cannot print from custom paper size (into word option), because my
document is printing in bad places and bad orientation on the printer (in
preview mode into word, it seems good).

I deleted all the printers drivers and windows forms paper size, i
reinstalled printer's drivers and i create one custom paper size in one
printer driver. All was ok.
when i inserted new custom paper sizes all was ok.
Untill, after insert a new paper size, the problem created.
i delete this paper size , then all ok.
i create a different paper size the problem created.
i tryed a lot combinations ...
so ..
i saw that windows cannot accept a lot number of paper size and when the
windows number is full then the word has a big problem (it losts a lot ,
almost all, of the custom paper size and not only, it losts and the predifind
[from printers driver manufactor] paper size.
I think (but not sure) the top of paper sizes that windows can affort is
255. i created 220 paper sizes and the problem begun (i estimate that
windows must had 30 predifind paper sizes from the manufactor of printer's
drives).

But may the problem is creating from one printer's drive (the top number
that windows can afford, may be not windows problem but driver's problem), i
give 5% in this option.

It must be a long time to try all this options.
I prefered to "cut" some custom paper sizes and now i am ok.
Greetings from Greece to anyone of you.

Robert thank you again
