Available Paper Size Not Available?
Hi all
Our company is a relative newcomer to Word, having been staunch WordPerfect users for many years. As a result, we are finding certain documents with unusual formatting characteristics difficult to recreate in Word. The latest is an attempt to print labels with watermarks for book spines - thanks to Graham and Terry for assistance with this. The final problem is pinter related! If I select the printer and go Properties, the option of A2 is available. If I select this and then go to page setup, A2 is not listed in the available paper sizes! What's going on? Is this a driver problem? The printer is a HP Designjet 800 wide format device. Thanks in anticipation Phil |

Word has a maximum paper size of 22" x 22". A 2 is slightly larger than 22"
(23.4"). You will have to use the Custom setting and set 16½" x 22", sacrificing the 1.4" (though you can absorb some of this loss by minimising the margin at the bottom on portrait or right in landscape). -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "TheScullster" phil-at-dropthespam.com wrote in message ... : Hi all : : Our company is a relative newcomer to Word, having been staunch WordPerfect : users for many years.
