% initialization file for dvips % % (At present, the only thing this .dvipsrc file does is change the % default paper size to US letter, 8.5in x 11 in.) % Standard tex distributions define the European A4 as the default paper % size. This .dvipsrc file will change the default back to US letter % size, 8.5in x 11 in. (Another way to change the default paper size is % is with the texconfig command, but only if you have root access.) % All of the paper size info from /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps % is copied here, but with the first few lines rearranged to make 8.5in % x 11in letter the default size. % discard all prevous paper size info: @ % the first "@" command defines the default paper size: @ letterSize 8.5in 11in @+ %%PaperSize: letter @ A4size 210mm 297mm @+ %%PaperSize: A4 @ letter 8.5in 11in @+ %%BeginPaperSize: Letter @+ letter @+ %%EndPaperSize @ legal 8.5in 14in @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: Legal @+ %%BeginPaperSize: Legal @+ legal @+ %%EndPaperSize @ ledger 17in 11in @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: Ledger @+ %%BeginPaperSize: Ledger @+ ledger @+ %%EndPaperSize @ tabloid 11in 17in @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: Tabloid @+ %%BeginPaperSize: Tabloid @+ 11x17 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ a6 105mm 148mm @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: a6 @+ %%BeginPaperSize: a6 @+ a6 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ a5 148mm 210mm @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: a5 @+ %%BeginPaperSize: a5 @+ a5 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ a4 210mm 297mm @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: a4 @+ %%BeginPaperSize: a4 @+ a4 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ a3 297mm 420mm @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: a3 @+ %%BeginPaperSize: a3 @+ a3 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ b6 128mm 182mm @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: b6 @+ %%BeginPaperSize: b6 @+ b6 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ b5 182mm 257mm @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: b5 @+ %%BeginPaperSize: b5 @+ b5 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ b4 257mm 364mm @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: b4 @+ %%BeginPaperSize: b4 @+ b4 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ b3 364mm 515mm @+ ! %%DocumentPaperSizes: b3 @+ %%BeginPaperSize: b3 @+ b3 @+ %%EndPaperSize @ unknown 0in 0in @+ statusdict /setpageparams known { hsize vsize 0 1 statusdict begin { @+ setpageparams } stopped end } { true } ifelse { statusdict /setpage known @+ { hsize vsize 1 statusdict begin { setpage } stopped pop end } if } if
