In Windows software the conventions are very simple. There's a "Page Setup" (or "Print Setup") command on the File menu which lets y9ou select any paper size which your printer driver can accomodate. When you start a new document it should start up assuming a paper size which was set last time you acceessed the printer's paper size selection dialogue. Other possibilities involve accessing the "locale" information (for example if no printer is sel;ected) and deciding from there. But bernard's sugestion of ensuring large enough margins that the music will fit on the intersection of an A4 and US-Letter page is a good one. I try and do it myself in MOZART's supplied examples.
