Users want to print payment vouchers on special sized paper, 7.5" x 8.5". This paper size does not exist as an option in the printer driver's pre-defined paper sizes. So here is what I have tried: I chose "custom size" in the printer setup of the report (File/Page Setup/Print Setup/Properties/Custom). Then a window appears, allowing me to specify the size of the paper, so I type in the dimensions, press "ok", "apply", "ok", "ok", and "ok". However, the report layout screen then turns all dark (meaning the dimensions of the paper are 0" by 0", I suppose). It doesn't seem to be able to handle a customer paper size? Then how can I print on special sized paper?

Using VFP 5.0 on Win '95 PC's connected to NT 4.0 server on LAN with Epson LQ 1000 printer.
