[PythonReports-users] PaperSizer - custom dimension

[Werner F. B. <wer...@fr...>]

Hi,

I am still fighting with my card 10 x 15 cm or in inches it is 4 x 6.

It is all layed out correctly now but I can do whatever I want it will 
not print on my cards correctly on a Canon printer.

At this point I am quit sure it has to do with the paper size over 
ridding the custom size.  In other words PythonReports passes the page 
size to the pdf writer stuff and the size (width/height) on the report 
level definition are ignored.

  <layout height="283" pagesize="B6" width="425">
   <style bgcolor="#FFFFFF" color="#000000" font="body" />
   <group expr="THIS.id" name="default">
    <title>

etc etc

Is my assumption correct or should it work and I am doing something wrong?

Werner

width and height attributes are ignored if pagesize is specified.

Please find attached a patch to allow not to specify a paper size in the 
editor.
