Notes


Purpose of the mod

This TNG mod adds page sizes for A2, Ledger, and Tabloid sizes to the PDF report page size list. Since print shops have the ability to print these larger sized pages for minimal extra cost, it would make sense to allow for these larger page sizes to be allowed for PDF printing. That way a person could create a PDF report in one of these larger print sizes to be able to go to a local print shop of their choice and get this larger report form printed on paper for a reunion or display without having to tape as many pages together. It can also allow for more text to show on one line before wrapping, which may make some reports easier to read.

Developer

The Larger PDF sizes mod was developed by Brent Hemphill.
