MS Project ... printing to non-standard size paper.

D

Dale

Hi:
I want to print a Project document (various types of charts) to an HP9500
plotter.
The plotter takes a roll of paper that is 42" wide.
In Project, I go under File > Print > Properties to set up the plotter paper
size.
Under <<edit paper size>> I enter the papeer size of say 42 x 100 (landscape).
It orients the paper for this size just fine.
Now, I go under File > Page Setup.
Here is where the problem is:
Page Setup does not allow me to specify the plotter (or its paper size) as the
paper size for the dcoument. It expects me to choose one of its "standard"
sizes from its list of paper sizes. It has "custom" sizes (e.g., 8 1/2 x 11)
but does not see my Custom size specified in File > Print > Properties.
It even has non-standard sizes (e.g., Oversize ANSI E, F, ...), but again,
nothing relative to what I specified to be used from the 42" wide roll.

Visio sees the 42" roll just fine and prints to it correctly, but Project
does not.

How do I overcome this problem ?

Thank you...
