Print - Changing The Paper Size In The STANDA
DocumentID: 634422
Revision Date: 29-Feb-96 3:03:40 PM

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: Control Printer listed 8.27" x 11.69" for the Paper and Manual for the Location when sending a print job. The document being printed had been retrieved from Office. When saving files from Office the default format is 4.2. Because of this, the STANDARD.CRS file is used to convert the codes when the file is retrieved into WordPerfect 5.0 or 5.1.

The customer was using the United Kingdom version of Office and the default paper size was 8.27" x 11.69". Since this size was not included in the STANDARD.CRS file the paper size remained in the document, thus causing the above mentioned information in Control Printer. The document printed as desired after the user edited the STANDARD.CRS file and retrieved the Office file again.

The user took the following steps to edit the STANDARD.CRS file:
1.      Retrieved STANDARD.CRS file on the WordPerfect document screen
2.      Entered Reveal Codes (the paper size does not appear on the regular screen)
3.      Cursored to the line that read SZ =
4.      Deleted the default paper size that appeared on that line
5.      Inserted the desired paper size through Shift-F8
6.      Cursored to the line that read BP =
7.      The paper size appeared again on that line (when looking at Reveal Codes)
8.      Deleted the paper size listed and inserted the correct paper size
9.      Saved and replaced the file

These steps should give the user the desired paper size when retrieving the file from Office.
