Maybe it means nothing and it is just the same type of > paper? I wanted a page choice of USLedger that was 11x17 inches, since I am in the US, and I use that paper size. You can toggle the landscape button to orient when you plot. The private member function updatePortrait() establishes the initial page orientation according to what height and width are. User now picks which paper orientation he wants from the dialogs, so the initial orientation is not really that important, especially since it is recorded in the BOARD file. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
