Patching the LaserWriter driver (and LaserPrep) for new paper size can certainly be done, but it's not a lot of fun. What I do for printing pages for my organizer is to either print four pages on a US Legal-size page and cut them apart, or to print onto blank Filofax pages via manual feed. One thing I do for this is to attach the little page to a US Letter size page with a piece of low-tack adhesive tape (3M "Post-It" tape is great for this), so that I can print to the edges of the smaller page. It's a hack, but it works, and it's amazing how much infomation you can pack onto an organizer page in 6 or 7 point laser type ... What I've been looking for is a six-hole paper punch and/or blank foldout pages, so I can print larger stuff (like maps, for example), fold them up and stick them in my organizer. -- Amanda Walker <amanda@lts.UUCP> InterCon Systems Corporation -- "A keyboard ... how quaint!" -- Scotty, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
