SYMPTOMS
========

When you change the Paper Size setting in the Pleading Wizard, the Lines Per
Page setting doesn't change.

Changing the Line Spacing setting changes the lines per page but reflects
settings based on letter-sized paper, regardless of which Paper Size setting is
selected.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, change the Lines Per Page setting to reflect the
correct number of lines per page for the selected paper size.

The Lines Per Page settings is available in the Page Layout section in the
Pleading Wizard.

MORE INFORMATION
================

When you set the Lines Per Page based on the line spacing and paper size you
specify in the Pleading Wizard, refer to the following table.

font and page margins you selected in the Pleading Wizard.
