Now if FinaleScript could change the paper size in the Page Setup

Yes, I just noticed this again (FinMac 2005, OS 10.3.9)
I have been switching back and forth, trying out the capabilities of my
new (well, second-hand, really) HP 5100 printer to print 2-up on one
sheet of large paper, and I tried to set the Page Setup so that it was
Tabloid size and Landscape orientation, then saving it as the default.
I was only partially successful. A few pages printed correctly, then
suddenly the computer decided to default to the OLD page setup (US
letter and portrait.)
I had to check the Page Setup manually for EVERY page I printed! Every
one I checked was correct, but as soon as I DIDN'T check one, it
printed with the OLD default! Wacky or what?
Then when I tried to revert back to US Letter and Portrait and save
THAT as the default, it appeared to work, until I inadvertently created
a PDF that used the 11x17 landscape setting when I didn't want it to.
Crap! How did it remember that setting, especially after I had
EXPRESSLY saved the original default?
FWIW, I had NO problem defining the OTHER printer to be the default
printer, nor getting it to default to 2-up, nor getting it to feed the
paper from the correct tray. It was only in the Page Setup dialogue box
that I couldn't get it to work by default.
I can see this taking a whole lot of mouse clicks if I can't work it
out.
Anyone have any insights?
