RE: Banners - 11 inches tall instead of 8.5 - 3/30/2007 6:12:14 PM    Brandy redux Posts: 2376 Joined: 2/7/2007 Status: offline Hi michaelw, If there is any way to make banners 11 inches tall instead of 8.5, I certainly can't find it. It looks to me like the default option for Banners in Print Shop is to have the Banners formatted in 8.5 inches tall Landscape orientation. As you may have already seen, the Tall format option will position the sheets of paper in 11 inches tall Portrait orientation. But, you would then end up with a Tall (vertical) banner rather than a Wide (horizontal) banner, which I'm sure is not what you are striving for. < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 8:50:59 PM > _____________________________ For More Help: Click on the FAQ link at the top of this page Then, click on the All FAQ's button on the next page To contact me by email, please send your message to pine_97@yahoo.com (in reply to michaelw) Post #: 2

I tried doing that, too. But, neither my Lexmark printer nor my Epson printers will allow Paper Width to be larger than 8.5". Or, did you use the Custom Paper Wizard? If so, which stock type did you use? < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 8:51:23 PM > _____________________________ For More Help: Click on the FAQ link at the top of this page Then, click on the All FAQ's button on the next page To contact me by email, please send your message to pine_97@yahoo.com (in reply to ellengard) Post #: 4

Anyway, to answer your question, my default printer was PDF so switching the x-y values was easy. I didn't realize my regular printer wasn't the default or I would have said something about PDF. I printed the PDF file and it came out perfectly as a 11" high, 2-page wide banner. Attachment (1) < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 8:51:31 PM > (in reply to Brandy redux) Post #: 5
