!!DESCRIPTION |
|
|
20 |
|
|
|
21 |
|
|
|
22 |
The __papersize__ file is used to specify the preferred |
|
|
23 |
paper size to use by available commands and programs |
|
|
24 |
generating documents. |
|
|
25 |
|
|
|
26 |
|
|
|
27 |
The format of this file is extremely simple: whitespace and |
|
|
28 |
anything starting with `#' is ignored, and the name of the |
|
|
29 |
paper is the first string found; the case in the name of the |
|
|
30 |
paper does not import (see __CAVEATS__ section |
|
|
31 |
however). |
|
|
32 |
!!PAPER NAMES |
|
|
33 |
|
|
|
34 |
|
|
|
35 |
The following names are commonly understood by programs: |
|
|
36 |
__a3__, __a4__, __a5__, __b5__, __letter__, |
|
|
37 |
__legal__, __executive__, __note__ and |
|
|
38 |
__11x17__. |
|
|
39 |
|
|
|
40 |
|
|
|
41 |
Additional paper names that one may encounter are: |
|
|
42 |
__a0__, __a1__, __a2__, __a6__, __a7__, |
|
|
43 |
__a8__, __a9__, __a10__, __b0__, __b1__, |
|
|
44 |
__b2__, __b3__, __b4__, __tabloid__, |
|
|
45 |
__statement__, __note__, __halfletter__, |
|
|
46 |

|
|
47 |

|
|
48 |
__archD__, __archE__, __flsa__, __flse__, |
|
|
49 |

|
|
50 |
__10x14__. |
|
|
51 |
|
|
|
52 |
|
|
|
53 |
If the __papersize__ file does not exist, programs using |
|
|
54 |
the paper library default to using paper specified by the |
|
|
55 |
__PAPERCONF__ environment variable or __letter__ paper |
|
|
56 |
if this variable is not set. |

This manual page documents the format of the |
|
|
61 |
__papersize__ file that is read by the __libpaper__ |
|
|
62 |
library. Some programs that read this file do not yet use |
|
|
63 |
the library and may have trouble ignoring whitespace and |
|
|
64 |
comments in the file; they may also require that the paper |
|
|
65 |
names use a specific capitalization. |
