Since a lot of people seem to have problems printing some of the
InterViews documents I thought I might tell you how we managed to print
the ibuild.ps document. My local PostScript guru had a look at it and he
made the following change in the function setpapername:
/setpapername {
/papersizedict 14 dict def
papersizedict begin
/papername /unknown def
/Letter 8.5 inch 11.0 inch pagedimen
/LetterSmall 7.68 inch 10.16 inch pagedimen
/Tabloid 11.0 inch 17.0 inch pagedimen
/Ledger 17.0 inch 11.0 inch pagedimen
/Legal 8.5 inch 14.0 inch pagedimen
/Statement 5.5 inch 8.5 inch pagedimen
/Executive 7.5 inch 10.0 inch pagedimen
/A3 11.69 inch 16.5 inch pagedimen
/A4 8.5 inch 11.0 inch pagedimen <== ADD THIS LINE
/A4 8.26 inch 11.69 inch pagedimen
/A4Small 7.47 inch 10.85 inch pagedimen
/B4 10.125 inch 14.33 inch pagedimen
/B5 7.16 inch 10.125 inch pagedimen
end
} def
This seems to be a well known problem with FrameMaker documents. This
fix is of course only helpful when you have a printer which uses A4
paper.
