>>Hi, Dmitry,

>>Go to Settings in your Windows system, select a capable printer, choose printing preferences, add a custom paper of the size you need (I used a PDF printer, for that). The new size will be available in the page setup of the Report editor (you may choose portrait and landscape at your will).

>>Required update: the above solution would apply if your customer could replicate exactly the identification of the new custom paper size.

>>A more general solution is to fill (by hand or programmatically) the first "Expr" field of the report (opened as a table) with the following content:

>>ORIENTATION=1
>>COLOR=2
>>PAPERLENGTH=4318
>>PAPERWIDTH=2794

17'' = 43.18 cm, but the unit used in the report metrics is tenth of millimetre. Therefore, 4318.

(I hope this is right...)
