yes, this has been possible for many years! open up your "pagesizes.txt" and make the changes you want. you can rename as you want to see it in the print and setup menus and can use any measurement unit in the settings (default is inches) and can mix&match with no probs. for example, if you use american paper sizes or 9x12 (concert) but want to define the margins in cm:

Concert [9x12]  = 9, 12; 1.27c, 0.65c, 1.8c, 1.5c, 1.5c

keep in mind this is stored within the individual application support folders, so upon upgrade you will need to copy the file over.


I have created a B4 score in Finale by selecting the only B4 size available. When trying to print this to PDF, I got a message indicating the paper sizes do not match. I have worked out that Finale is using JIS standard instead of ISO. I have fixed this by changing to custom page size, but wonder why this "omission" has occurred and why ISO and JIS are not both included in standard definitions, or ISO preferred over JIS.

Is there a way to save a custom page size so I do not have to set it up each time?
