Dear List,

I have been ignoring this problem for a long time now and want to fish
forsolutions.

After setting up a custom layout for either the printer or a .pdf print
as a workspace I
always loose the layout page size after reopening the workspace. The
layout seems
to default to the most recent dimensions defined in a mapinfo workspace
and overrides the page setup defined for the newly opened workspace.

In other words I am constantly resetting the page settings for layouts
on a workspace by workspace basis.

Any ideas on how to stop this annoying time waster?

In the past, I've solved this by going into the printer settings and defining the page size I wanted to use. Then when I call up that printer in MapInfo, that page is already defined and when I save the workspace with the printer info, the workspace references the custom page size and will call it up correctly the next time. I don't know if all printers allow custom setups, but the HP large scale plotters I use certainly do.


Hope this helps.

Mark
