Hey all, not sure if this is really a bug.

The 2.11 documentation (Notation Reference 4.1.2 Page formatting) says:

  paper-width
    The width of the page. The default is taken from the current paper size.
  line-width
    The length of the systems. Default is paper-width minus 20mm.

So should setting paper-width to 100mm set line-width to 80mm?
No! On the other hand, setting the paper size using the set-default-paper-size function, such as
#(set-default-paper-size "a6" 'landscape)
should automatically update also the line-width, so in that sense the documentation is correct.
