[QUOTE="Netdewt, post: 942808, member: 125454"] Got it!!!!! Nothing's impossible. 1. Locate this file: "/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/PrintCore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/PaperInfo.xml" 2. Make a backup in case you screw up. It's not my fault if you do either. 3. Make a copy on your Desktop. 4. Open the copy in TextEdit. 5. Make a new entry like the others, don't copy from here: [CODE] <key>com.apple.print.subTicket.paper_info_ticket 2</key> <dict> <key>PMPPDPaperCodeName</key> <string>Half Letter</string> <key>PMTiogaPaperName</key> <string>Half Letter</string> <key>com.apple.print.PaperInfo.PMPaperName</key> <string>Half Letter</string> <key>com.apple.print.PaperInfo.PMUnadjustedPageRect</key> <array> <real>0.0</real> <real>0.0</real> <real>360</real> <real>576</real> </array> <key>com.apple.print.PaperInfo.PMUnadjustedPaperRect</key> <array> <real>-18</real> <real>-18</real> <real>378</real> <real>594</real> </array> <key>com.apple.print.PaperInfo.ppd.PMPaperName</key> <string>Half Letter</string> <key>com.apple.print.ticket.APIVersion</key> <string>01.00</string> <key>com.apple.print.ticket.type</key> <string>com.apple.print.PaperInfoTicket</string> </dict>[/CODE] 6. Change the "<real>###</real>" values to suit you. The first two I didn't touch. The next two are the dimensions inside the margins. The next two are the margins. The final two are the dimensions outside the margins. I don't know what units these are but shown here is 5.5x8.5" with 0.25" margins. 7. Change the order if desired. I made mine second. 8. Copy back to original folder and authenticate with master password. [/QUOTE]
