Please continue with other reports when you have a chance. The only thing I would ask is to try keeping the options consistent across the reports. E.g. of=3Dfilename should be similarly used for all rep= orts. Same with e.g. filters: anc,id=3DID should be used in all reports, whenever ancestors filter is an option. This seems trivial, but it's too easy to accidentaly use "anc" for one report and "Ancestors" for another and then be stuck with different names. So, maybe it's a good idea to accumulate options in some sort of single list/table, so that the same options are used when possible.=20 [snip] > Name: Paper Options > Description: Paper size, and orientation to use > Value: Paper size:psize=3D[Letter|A4|A3|.....|Custom] -- should default = to -> > if LC_PAPER then psize=3DLC_PAPER else psize=3DLetter. (?comments) Seems very sane. There's also the gramps' preference for the default paper size, so we will try using that one first.=20 > Paper orientation:porient=3D[Landscape|Portrait] -- default to Portrait > Paper size custom values: pcustx=3D##.## -- values for paper hight pcusty=3D##.## -- values for paper width > Should this be inch|mm ?

No, your selection between TT and PS is correct. Whoever whants to change a low level font, should be knowledgable enough to either change it in the dot file or in the python code.

I think we've solved it. It should not be a problem now. That said, should we maybe use mm for the margins as well? That way we hardly need floating point numbers at all.
