Help in defining page size

[John Hodgson]

I've found that the Distiller page size settings are ignored/overriden. The
way we get round it is to produce the .ps file with

dvipsone -d=[output].ps -l=442*663 c:[source].dvi

Where the l parameters are the page size (width * height) in points (72
points=1 inch). The numbers above produce UK metric royal page size 156 x
234 mm.

The resulting .ps file should distill to the correct size.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

John

If you are using Acrobat Distiller to get from .ps to .PDF, set up a new set
of job options (with a new name) in Distiller with the right size.  There
are boxes to fill in the dimensions.

All the best
