Setting paper size programattically

I have used three types of paper for my whole reports.

1. Fanfold 15" X 12"
2. Fanfold 210mm X 12"
3. 8" X 6"

Some printer support & some does not support that paper size. How i change paper size as above programatically.

Thanks

Hi intel4,
Are you using a VB or other programmed front-end to your reports?

(You can't do this from within CR).

Crystal is heavily dependent on the printer driver so what you are trying to do may or may not be possible and if it works may not look good.

Paper size - These may apply even though they are for earlier versions of CR.
