The Print Shop® 2.0 includes a Custom Paper Size Wizard that allows you to add new or unsupported paper stock to The Print Shop® for printing labels, envelopes, greeting cards, invitations, business cards and postcards.
NOTE: The 'New/Edit...' option mentioned below is found only in the Deluxe and Professional versions of The Print Shop 2.0. So, if you are using the standard version of The Print Shop 2.0, you will not be able to create a new Paper Size.
Creating a Custom Paper Stock
* Open either a 'Create from Scratch or Project Wizard' or a 'Create from Ready-Made Template' project.
* When the selected project is displayed on the workspace, click on the down arrow next to the 'Paper Size:' box in the upper left hand corner of the workspace. When the menu drops down, click on 'New/Edit…'
* Select one of the following options on the "How would you like to create this paper size?" window, then click on 'Next'.
* Create a new paper size(Skips to step 3)
* Create a new paper size based on an existing size
When you select this option, you will be shown a list of existing sizes to select from. Select one of the existing sizes, then click on 'Next'. Enter the paper width and height.
If you are creating a custom label size, click the box next to “This stock is a label”. This should also be used when trying to create a project like postcards where you want more then one card to print per sheet. Fill in the Label Specific Information (Number of Rows, Distance Between Rows, Number of Columns, Distance Between Columns). If appropriate, check the “This stock is a round label”.
Click on 'Finish'.
* Edit or delete an existing user-defined paper size
The custom stock you have created will appear on the Print Shop workspace.

After adding a new paper stock, the dimensions of the custom paper stock can be modified (if needed) by following the procedure below.
* Click on the down arrow next to the 'Paper Size:' box in the upper left hand corner of the workspace. When the menu drops down, click on 'New/Edit…'.
* Select "Edit or delete an existing user-defined paper size', then click on 'Next'.
* Select the custom stock you wish to modify by selecting it from the list on the left, then click on 'Next'.
Note: Custom stock can be removed by selecting it and checking the box next to “Mark selected item to be deleted”.
