As i stated in another answer in this thread, the thing is to define the custom paper size in Windows Printer setup, not from inside VFP. Then, in the report designer, just choose Custom Size, but DO NOT CLICK on properties of the printer, since this deleted the custom settings every time.

>I don't know if you've fixed this or not, but I noticed a similar problem. I am using a report form 9"x12" (envelope) and the printer is assuming the maximum setting when it prints no matter what custom size I set. This just throws the printing out of alignment. I am using an HP8000 on a network. I believe it is a print driver problem, but no one at HP thinks the same. I recently changed from a Win98 workstation on a Win2000 server to a Win2000 workstation on the same network and that's when my problems started. If you have any of the same operating systems or printers, you may want to look to HP for the answer.
Why do programs stop working correctly as soon as you leave the Fox?
