Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsnt>print (more info?)

I follwed instuctions from ms website on how to create custom fomrs in
windows NT and windows 2000.

I needed to print a 3x5 label to an epson printer from my windows NT 4
workstation.

the problem is, after I save the custom form, I see it if I go to control
panel, printers, server properties, BUT
I do not see it when I select the printer, its not available under the list
of forms.
any ideas?

the GPD for the printer must also support the form size. GPD can be found
in \winnt\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\2

look for something similar to
*Option: CUSTOMSIZE
