I need the advice of an expert about printing.

What does a 13 x 19 paper size amount to in mm? I'm asking because my printer will does not have the option to print 13 x 19 sizes. Here's what's available:

A2
A3
A4
A5
A6

B3
B4
B5

US 11 x 17
US C 17 x 22

What option works best to print 13 x 19 images?

330mm X 483mm

I *think* that is closest to A3.

Try the Processing and printing forum for better answers.

A4 is 297mm x 210mm
A3 is 420mm x 297mm
A2 is 594mm x 420mm

If you can't see the pattern:
- the short side of A3 = the long side of A4
- the long side of A3 = double the short side of A4

Or, to put it another way, if you cut an A3 sheet in 2 you get 2 A4 sheets. Cut A4 in 2 you get 2 A5 sheets etc.

Now there are 25.4mm to an inch, and I'll let you do the maths :)

Hehe! I guess Sheawyatt was right! I'll try to use the size of 330mm x 483mm. Wish me luck.

Which printer - you should check for firmware updates - canon had this problem with MacOSX leopard for the ipf5000. They then updated firmware and drivers and added a plug-in.
