NAME

paperconf - print paper configuration information  

SYNOPSIS

paperconf [ [ -p ] paper | -d | -a ] [ -z ] [ -n | -N ] [ -s | -w | -h ] [ -c | -m | -i ]  

DESCRIPTION

paperconf prints information about a given paper. The information that can be obtained is the name of the paper, its size and its width or height. When called without arguments, paperconf prints the name of the system- or user-specified paper, obtained by looking in order at the PAPERSIZE environment variable, at the contents of the file specified by the PAPERCONF environment variable, at the contents of /etc/papersize or by using letter as a fall-back value if none of the other alternatives are successful. By default, width and height of the paper are printed in PostScript points.  

OPTIONS
