- In Executor 2 you can use -pagesize to specify paper sizes and
- orientations that are different from the default of US Letter
- Portrait. To print in landscape you'd say:
-
- executor -pagesize 792x612
-
- The units are "points", of which there are 72 to an inch.
-
- It's not a particularly good solution, but it was the best I could do
- at the last minute.
