    (Though I dont see why you would want the paper background smaller than your drawing).

    Im still thinking that laijumalias is probably trying to change his border template size.
    Lets see what he says when he gets back to us.

    Hi thanks to all of you, yes I want to get the background in other words the layout size changed while changing the sheet size, I dont want the border size to change, thi is to use the layout in what to plot area in plot dialoge box. Sorry I was very busy with one project thats why it took long to respond.
