I want to make a PS-file from large format CAD-drawings.
Either, its only possible to choose between A4, B5, Letter, Legal and the US-formats.
How can I use a A0 format?
I've installed the driver as a Generic Postscript printer and I'm using Windows XP Pro dutch version.

TIA

The generic printer is not not a good choice. It is designed to make
PostScript that ANY printer can handle. Since not all printers do
large format, this must be forbidden!

Use the correct PPD or driver for your specific printer. The accurate
choice of PPD is more important than many people realise.

OK, thanks for your answer.
All the time, I've used the PPD of our WDV-plotter which make it possible to choice for large formats.

Problem solved!

Thanks!
