This article was previously published under Q101735 SUMMARY
The PostScript printer driver for Windows 3.1 and Windows for Workgroups
3.1 (PSCRIPT.DRV) versions 3.50 to 3.56 provide two paper choice options:
Letter 8.5 x 11 and Note 8.5 x 11. These options are identical.
MORE INFORMATION
With Windows versions earlier than 3.1, each paper size required a
unique, predefined identification value. To create a Windows printer
driver for a PostScript printer, the Microsoft Windows Device
Development Kit (DDK) utility called MKPRN is used. If two or more
paper sizes have the same dimensions, MKPRN either ignores the
duplicate or maps it to a unique, predefined paper size. In the case
of the PostScript printer driver, the paper sizes Letter 8.5 x 11 and
Note 8.5 x 11 were mapped to different paper sizes with the same
dimensions.
