Dim customPaperSize As New PaperSize("11x9 ", 1100, 900)

pdMain.DefaultP ageSettings.Pap erSize = customPaperSize

'pdmain is Friend WithEvents pdMain As
System.Drawing. Printing.PrintD ocument

Thanks in advance

Re: Custom size paper problem

Hi, the custom paper size has to be supported by the printer. The
'PrinterSetting s' provide a
'PaperSizes' property that contains all paper sizes supported by the
printer.

Hope this helps

Re: Custom size paper problem

Hi, I know but it shows the papersizes supported buy the printer, so you can
check if your papersize is supported

Re: Custom size paper problem

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your response. I fixed that issue using custom paper size
but now stuck with another problem
I am stuck with a problem Can anyone help me out from this...

I am printing a report on pre-printed continue paper using dot-matrix
printer using vb.net and paper size is my created custom page size

on first page Data is printing on all the correct locations. But
After printing first page it increase paper 3cm vertically/Height so on

second
page actual data goes down by 3 cm, So each time it increase 3 cm mean
on second page its 6cm and on 3rd page 9cm so on.... So After printing
the
first page on correct locations , data goes on different locations
which is complete mess.

please give any suggestion or any idea.

I am creating my own custom size page and setting the same for
printing.


Thanks
Sukh
