Custom Paper Size For DataWindowPB 8.0
We use datawindows to create custom forms which are printed on a laser
printer. We would like to use a custom paper size of 13 x 9. This paper
size is not listed in the dropdown of available sizes. The paper.size
property is expecting a number which corresponds to the associated size. I
know with labels, that you can add custom labels through the pblab80.ini
file. Is there a similar method for paper size? Any other ideas?
TIA

You should select default for all print properties in datawindow properties
and you must set new custom paper size on your printer setings. I use this
method everytime. It works succesfully.

How to set custom paper size by powerbuilder script?Dear All,
I'm now working on printing an invoice which is 21cm * 14cm.
I would like to know how to set the paper size by powerbuilder script?
Thanks in advance

Create a custom defined paper size of 140X210 with a name say 'invoice
report' on the printer and select the paper size as that name in the DW
print specification properties.
But the catch is that you need to create this print specification on all
client machines or else default size will be taken. Or else you need to
train the user to create one on printsetup dialog if this is not present for
them an...
Specifying customer paper size in Powerbuilder 7.0This has been my question since the first time I ever use
Powerbuilder/Datawindow. I would like to create a report that will print
invoice in a small paper (smaller than legal size).. I can't find any
datawindow object to specify such adjustment. Hope you get what I mean
and I'll be waiting for your reply.

How do I set Custom/ User-defined paper size in the datawindow painter?Helo,
I want to set Custom/ User-defined paper size in the
datawindow painter. I am using PowerBuilder 10.5.1 Build
6575. The Help says "To specify a user-defined paper size,
set the Paper.Size property to 255 or 256, then set the
Print.CustomPage.Length and Print.Custom.Page.Width
properties to the desired size."But how can I do it in the
datawindow painter? I have created a custom paper size in
the printer. Is it possible to get it in the datawindow
paper size?
Thanks & Regards,
Biju Skariah.

UrgentHi everyone,
Is there any way that I can define the size of paper? Moreover, if the
datawindow is in the format of Label, how can I customize the size of
the label?? On the other hand, how can I dynamically changing the size
of datawindow by using Modify?? Thank you very much for any help.
Best Regards,
Andy Cheung
The PBLABXX ini file provides the lable layouts etc used by the label
datawindow. You can read this yourself (create new entries if you wish) and
use most of the attributes to change the label layout on a datawindow. It is
quite easy but not ALL attributes can be ch...

customized paper size ?Hi all,
Is there any way to print in a customer size ? (for example, my paper size
is 12.5 x 7.5 cm (5 x 2.94 inch ) ).
I can't use the default paper size because the printer's driver is always on
A4 paper size.
Any idea ?
Thanks

Custom paper sizeI know there is a way to add a custom paper size (custom form) on
Windows NT server.
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=157172
Is there a way to do the same on Novell servers (iPrint)?
Any suggestion / link will be very appreciated.
Yanick
iPrint approaches this a little differently. There are driver profiles
that allow the administrator to set up driver characteristics by default,
one of which being the paper size that the printer driver supports.
You can add new forms to an NDPS Manager, however, this has to be done on
both the server and NWAdmin. THis is not a fea...
Custom Paper SizesIs there a way to define custom paper sizes.
I am trying to print concert tickets 1 7/8 by 5 1/2 inches with 0" margins
on a custom ticket printer.
Any suggestions.
Thanks in advance

using Infomaker 7.0.3
Using Windows 2000, here's how:
From the Start menu, select Settings/Printers
In the "Printers" window, select File/Server Properties
When the Print Server Properties window appears, you should find a checkbox
titled "Create a New Form" on the "Forms" Tab. This is where you do it.
