What did you try? The proper way to set pdfTeX to letter paper *is* texconfig-sys pdftex paper letter Or texconfig-sys paper letter to also change the defaults for dvips and dvipdfm. That is if you want to change the system-wide default. Use texconfig for per user changes. cheerio ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
