Are you sure their printer can accommodate that size? Maybe you are designing the workbook for them but on your computer, your printer is not the type that handles that size paper. If the printer cannot print it, you won’t see that size as an option in the settings. Those printer(s) (the default one or whichever you assign at the Control Panel level) must have the capability to print on that size paper. The issue is the printer(s) that are attached to the computer running the workbook. “I ran into this before, with a client who only wanted that size paper, which in VBA code is referred to as xlPaper11x17 or xlPaperTabloid. Can you help? I really need to be able to convert these documents on my laptop to Tabloid size layout and Print Preview them as such.
