Syntax

-paperType paperTypeId

Description

The Form Properties dialog allows you to set a paper type to be used. Using this command line option allows you to override that setting at Merge run time. Note that the Page Properties dialog allows you to set the paper type for each page layout, however most often that is left to the setting "Leave setting currently in effect". It is those pages that may be affected by setting this default, form level, paper type setting.

Of course, this can also be overridden by script on objects and in fact is identical to saying this._paperType = _1001{_}; in the form object script.

paperTypeId must be one of the numerical identifiers defined in the applicable .prt (printer configuration file) for paper types. Typical values are 1001, 1002, ...
