Re: default paper size

So hoping, someone will have an answer for me? Gone through 3 different revisions already (2003, 2007, 2010) and seems like we still can't change the default paper size without changing the default printer.

One curious thing I saw was when we did an import from Word that was legal size, the page size would say legal while the other drop downs would stay as "default." Is this a bug workaround? It would be unfortunate if I had to recreate all these forms just so that the user can print on legal without manually choosing that option.

I was hoping you wouldn't say it wasn't possible. :(

I already did a print view which fixed the formating and alignment issues but as far as page length/size I don't see an option to change that. Unless I chose a printer which I then can choose legal sized paper but that would only work for the users who use my specific printer.

I don't believe there is any way to change the default paper size, but perhaps you can create a print view for your users. Here is a link that may help: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/infopath/HP010981031033.aspx . This way, no matter what printer they are using the form will print the same.

Is there a way to change the default page size? Under the default printer name/size/source it will print letter sized. If I choose my default printer it will allow me to change the letter to legal size but all my users will be using different printers. Anyway around this?
