Standard sheet music in (US)

[Rick Hansen (aka RickH)]

Hello,

I've been away from LP for a few months, so I decided to upgrade to 2.8.5.

I added 9x12 inch paper to paper.scm, however LP is still not recognizing
all the real estate available to it.  Also when I go to print and tell Adobe
the paper is 9x12, Adobe still thinks the document size is 8.5x11 even
though my \paper block clearly indicates 9x12.

Can anyone fill me in on how to print on standard sheet music paper?  In the
USA std sheet music is called "Arch A" or "Architectural A" or as Finale
calls it "Concert".  All these are 9x12 inches and most printers install
these forms in the US automatically.  So I'm not asking for anything weird
here.

Changing paper.scm alone does not seem to do the trick.  I seem to recall
there was some other file that needed to be changed, but since I already
overlayed 2.8.0 with 2.8.5 I cant tell what those changes entailed, nor am I
a Scheme programmer.

thanks for any help on this that anyone might have.  I hope lp catches on in
the USA and that someday it will support standard sheet music paper.

Rick
