Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Print-Tool: problem printing after defining custom paper sizes

2016-10-09 by forums@walkerblackwell.com

Also, always put the custom width as the small dimension and the custom height as the long dimension. Always place the page into the printer in portrait mode (vertically).

best,
Walker
