>From Sql-Ledger when I select PS (postscript) + Screen it allows me to view it or save it as PS - postscript file. If I select PS (postscript) + printer, it goes directly to printer. I was even following this instruction (an excellent) document the explain some problems with tetex and ps paper size printing problem: http://www.tzekwangteo.org/latex/papersize.pdf I went through this document made the changes he suggested, but still doesn't help. I even restarted the computer, just to make sure the changes take effect but it doesn't help. When I sent the print job to a printer it keeps asking for A4 paper size? I'm already wasted almost two days on this silly problem. -- #Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
