    Hi Bill,

    This question may be very easy to you but for me I've a hard time!

    I would like to plot my drawing in 24" x 48" size, when I select my

    plotter I don't find the same size paper, I find 24x36, 36x48 etc..

    My roll size is 24".

    I'm a beginner in drafting profession.

    Thanks in advance.

    First off, it's not that easy. I have found it quite difficult to find ways
    to create custom paper sizes lately. In Windows 98 it was much easier. But
    now, the new drivers supplied don't make it very easy. I also found it a
    tad easier if printing directly to the printer rather than use a PC3 file.
    The PC3 doesn't always support custom paper sizes. Is that what you folks
    have found, or do you have other suggestions?

    Jaymin is using an HP Designjet 500. I tried to download drivers and I
    installed it to plot to a file, but it only gives me letter, legal and A4.
    That's ridiculous. What's happening?
