Creates a customized paper size or changes the printable area of a standard or
nonstandard paper size. With the Custom Paper Size wizard you can create a
new paper size, or select from a list of available paper sizes (from a PMP file)
if the plotter is not a Windows system printer. If the plotter is a Windows
system printer, use Custom Properties. You can add, delete, and edit your
paper size.
Each plotter has a maximum printable area determined by where it grips the
paper and how far the pen shuttle can reach. If you are creating a paper size
that is larger than the paper sizes offered in the Plotter Configuration Editor,
verify that the plotter is capable of plotting the new dimensions.
■ Add: Starts the Custom Paper Size wizard. When you add a paper size, you
can either create a new paper size from scratch or create a new one based
on the listing of available paper sizes for the selected configured plotter.
The new paper size is a user-defined size, not a standard size.
■ Delete: Deletes the selected custom paper size from the list.
■ Edit: Starts the Custom Paper Size wizard, where you can modify the selected
paper size. You can change any of the custom paper size settings.
NOTE For Windows system printers, you can change the paper size settings and
create custom paper sizes only in the Custom Properties dialog box.
