Hi

How do I set the page size in Visio to A3 without having a A3 printer
selected or printer at all.
PageSize= A3 '8
doesnt help, only works if the user got a A3 printer selected as default
printer.

If a user only got a A4 printer this doesnt work.
I have seen that in page setup, the same as printer is marked, and there is
also a customize option button that I cant reach programatically.

I have no idea about the users printers, because they are about 20.000 and I
print the doc as a A3 and this have to work either a A3 is selected as
default or not.
Dim oVisio as new Visio.Application
Dim oDoc as visio.Document

set oDoc = oVisio.Document.add("")
oDOc.Pagesize = 8 ' this doesnt work if the default printer is not a a3
printer
oDoc.Printlandscape = true


Can someone help me?

Hi,

very simple: You can wet ANY pagesite on thge Page Properties. Usually the
drawing page is the same size as the printer page, but on the second Tab you
can change that.

File->Page Setup->Second Tab

It will only be set to A3 if there is a A3 printer

Jim,

there is a ShapeSheet of the Page (called the PageSheet). There you can set
ANY Size in the PageHeight and the PageWidth cells :-)
