2007 Pub Printing Custom Paper Size

[Paul]

When setting paper size to 5.75 wide by 8 high (for invitation stock), the
content of the page prints too low, whether existing pub file or create from
scratch. Same problem on every PC in school. Latest HP4200 driver. To
print had to drag content up page past the top edge of the paper. Any ideas
why and how to fix?

Do you have both Publisher and the printer set for that size paper?

Thanks for responding. Only changed papersize in publisher; thought it would
tell the printer about the paper size change same way it does with portrait
and landscape. It's a networked shared printer, so would prefer not to
change settings on printer which could affect other printjobs.

The printer setting is good for the present publication, it will not carry on to
other publications or applications.
If you want your invitation to print correctly you must set the printer for 5.75
X 8. I have made hundreds, if not thousands of custom size cards. Never has the
printer defaulted to the custom size in other applications.
