7.3.12.2 Paper Length and Width.
These settings define the length and width of the paper that is used when this document is printed.
Usually you will use your standard printer paper when printing a document and you will have
already set the Page Length and Page Width settings in the Printer Setup list to the correct values
for this paper, as discussed in Section 6.7. In this case, leave the Paper Length and Width settings in
the Page Settings List set to the standard printer settings. If you later change the size of the paper
you are using in your printer, you only have to change the settings in the Printer Setup List.
However, if you always want to use a special Paper Length or Page Width for a particular
document, then change the settings for that document here accordingly.
If the Paper Length is set to the standard printer settings when you review the Page Settings list, the
following prompt is displayed:
"Paper length? Currently using the standard printer setting of x.”
This indicates that the setting is the same as the value in the Printer Setup list. If you change the
setting here in the Page Settings List, the prompt is: "Paper length? Currently l.
where l is the paper length in lines. In this case the printer setting is being over-ridden for this
document. To reset the paper length or width to match the value in the Printer Setup list, use the
Clear Field command, CONTROL with BACKSPACE.
7.3.12.3 Top and Bottom Margins.
These are the numbers of blank lines left at the top and bottom of the page when printing. The
initial values for a new document are both set to 6.
These are the last items in the Page Settings list. The method of changing the initial values is
discussed in 7.17.12 Initial Format Settings in a Document.
7.3.13 Center a Line.
You can position a line of text mid-way between the left and right margins. To do this, place the
cursor anywhere on the line, and press CONTROL with E. KeySoft will display: "Center line"
The line of text is centered horizontally. To maintain the centering effect with long lines, text in
excess of 90% of the usable page width overflows onto the next line. Centering applies to the whole
of a paragraph.
