Paper size

The width and height values can be changed by typing numeric strings into the edit boxes in the
Paper Size group box.

Any entry that is greater than the maximum limits of the width and height control is rounded down to
the maximum valid entry, while any entry that is smaller than the minimum limits of the width and
height control is rounded up to the minimum valid entry.

Any non-numerical entry reverts to the last valid entry. Width and height entries are validated when
the focus has changed.

The resolution of the control is two decimal places for both millimeters and inches.

Units

To change measurement units, select one of the radio buttons in the Units group box (either Inches
or Millimeters).
