Can anyone suggest a way to override sheet size default in Layout?

I need 18" x 24" and 24" x 36".

Thanks

I annswered in your other post:

"Well, go to the File menu and there the Document setup and the Paper
tab. Here you can create your custop paper which you can even save as
a template (fur later use) at File > Save as template (then you should
be able to locate it at My templates when opening a new document)."

Thanks Gaieus,

My Goodness! do you ever sleep at all?

No!, let me guess... hmmm... you practice astral projection and do a
timeless selfclone for about 12 simultaneous forums?

Again, how do you do archeology then?


Cheers mate!

This is the National Geographic (Hungary) article about the stuff we
finished digging about a year ago:
http://www.gaieus.hu/su/pics/NG_Pecs.pdf
It will be also released in the National Geographic Traveller
Magazine, too (well, I guess in at least a couple of months).

We excavated about 13,000 cubic metres of dirt (partly under other
historic buildings) and about 70-80 % of them was done by hand (in the
meanwhile some 78 Roman and about 3 dozen of medieval graves). So I
can still devote some time on it...

It is a world heritage site and this excavation covered about 1/3 of
the known monuments (and we have found 5 more buildings). Although the
article is in Hungarian, you may still be able to spot me (both in the
texts and in pictures :-)

Gai...

p.s. Ah yeah, and some info about it:
http://www.septichora.hu/ (a website that I myself am (very slowly)
building about the monuments there (WIP of course but you have so
little time to do everything at once).

Great job Gaieus, and a beautiful and stimulating career you've
chosen. I left a note in your website. And I'd put a fiver if there
was a clickable somewhere.

Congrats to you all and I wish you a great success with this beautiful
task.

(Ahhhh! wish I was there!...)

Cheers and thanks for sharing... (...and go take a nap!)

Thanks, I read the comments and also answered.
Yes, it's a really nice (and exciting) job. And there's a great use of
SU also!
Have you seen this topic "over there"?

Great job and cool mission.

You must be proud of yourself.

We are getting off-topic a bit here...
