Legal-Size paper format in some parts of the world generally refers to "8.5 x
13.0 inches" page size, also known as "Folio" or "German Legal Fanfold". 

Locally known in the Philippines as "Long Bond Paper", this "8.5 x 13 inches" is
what common filipino people use when they want to print legal documents
(contracts, deeds, affidavits, etc). 

More often than not, ordinary and not-so-knowledgeable users of OOo and/or
MSWord (eg. like my 65 year old father), will mistakenly choose "US-Legal" or
8.5 x 14 inches in the Page format, when they should in fact be choosing Folio
(which is not available in the drop-down menu), or customizing the paper size to
8.5" x 13".  

It would be nice if OOo development team just include "Folio" in the page size
format option. It's easier to teach new users to "point and click". That way,
there is less time wasted in customizing every newly installed OOo, just trying
to create a customized 'page style' to support Folio (the Philippine Legal-Size
paper format).

Thanks,
