[PLUG] Fwd: OpenOffice default paper size

[alex]

I saw three lines that I changed in order for it to come up as a letter
size default. The first line did nothing so I just went ahead and
changed the other 2 (checking each change) and it took all 3 to effect
the change. Of course right now it seems that lpr has dumped all over
itself and I am unable to print at all. Still working that one out.

What are the other two places? I only made the one change and it solved 
my problems. I did find two other places in my system's psprint.conf 
file but those paper size values were associated with the two printers 
I have setup. I was able to setup the appropriate paper size for each 
printer when I set them up in the admin program.

Thanks,

Tony
