changing papersize

Post by armando.horcajo »

I read a lot of information, posts, biopdf web site and more and more... but I cannot change the default papersize to A4.
I am trying to do it from a VB application. I am trying to print a report which is set to papersize A4 (if I print directly to any real printer, it is printed in A4 size). But when pdf is generated using Bullzip (7.1.1181) file is always generated in Letter size.
Is it a property to change in Bullzip or in Ghostscript ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

When you install the PDF Writer then it select a default paper size based on your regional settings. You can force a default paper size during installation by using the /PAPERSIZE=A4 command line switch.

You can also set a custom defined paper size in a print job if your report engine supports that.
