that the LISP program functions properly later in this chapter.
Next, you’ll need to get rid of all the default “paper sizes,” which for this virtual
image plotter driver are actually pixel sizes. You’ll then create your own custom size
that is larger than any of the presets. Continue with these steps:
8. Click Next and then click the Edit Plotter Configuration button.
9. Click the Device And Document Settings tab in the Plotter Configuration Editor
that appears and expand the User-Defined Paper Sizes & Calibration node in the
driver hierarchy.
10. In that expanded list, click Filter Paper Sizes. Then click the Uncheck All button.
11. Select the Custom Paper Sizes node and click the Add button (Figure 1.6).

12. In the Custom Paper Size Wizard, choose Start From Scratch and click Next.
13. On the Media Bounds page, type 3000 for Width and 2000 for Height
(Figure 1.7). Leave the Units drop-down set to Pixels. Click Next.
14. On the Paper Size Name page, type ImageSize in the text box (Figure 1.8).
15. Finally, click Finish to close this wizard. ImageSize appears in the Plotter
Configuration Editor now.
