SYMPTOMS

When you change the Paper Size setting in the Pleading Wizard, the Lines per page setting does not change.

CAUSE

Changing the Line Spacing setting changes the lines per page but reflects settings based on letter-size paper, regardless of which Paper Size setting is selected.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, change the Lines per page setting to reflect the correct number of lines per page for the selected paper size.

The Lines per page setting is available in the Page Layout section in the Pleading Wizard.
