NAME

6       paperconfig - configure the system default paper size
7

SYNOPSIS

9       paperconfig  [  -v,--version  ] [ -h,--help ] [ -p, --paper papername |
10       --force ]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       paperconfig sets the system (or default) paper  to  be  used  by  tools
14       using  the  papersize  file.   It  can either ask interactively for the
15       paper to use or be called non-interactively by scripts.
16
17       When the paper size has been changed, paperconfig notifies other  pack‐
18       ages of the change by running the scripts in the /etc/libpaper.d direc‐
19       tory.

31
32       --force

35

ENVIRONMENT

37       PAPERCONF Full path to a file containing the paper size  to  use;  this
38       file will be rewritten with the system paper size.
39

FILES

41       /etc/papersize      Contains  the name of the system-wide default paper
42                           size to be used if the PAPERSIZE  variable  is  not
43                           set.
44
45       /etc/libpaper.d     Directory  of  scripts  to run after the paper size
46                           has been changed.  This  package  puts  no  scripts
47                           here, but other packages may.  run-parts is used to
48                           run the scripts, therefore their names must  comply
49                           with run-part's naming requirements.
