PAPERCONFIG(8)                      Linux Administrator's Manual                      PAPERCONFIG(8)



NAME
       paperconfig - configure the system default paper size

SYNOPSIS
       paperconfig [ -v,--version ] [ -h,--help ] [ -p, --paper papername | --force ]

DESCRIPTION
       paperconfig  sets the system (or default) paper to be used by tools using the papersize file.
       It can either ask interactively for the paper  to  use  or  be  called  non-interactively  by
       scripts.

       When  the  paper  size has been changed, paperconfig notifies other packages of the change by
       running the scripts in the /etc/libpaper.d directory.

OPTIONS
       -v,--version
              Print the version of paperconfig and exit.

       -h,--help
              Print help about usage and exit.

       -p, --paper papername
              Use papername if possible. If papername is not a valid paper, print an  error  message
              and exit.

       --force
              Force  interactive  selection  of the system paper even if the actual paper is a valid
              one.

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

FILES
       /etc/papersize      Contains the name of the system-wide default paper size to be used if the
                           PAPERSIZE variable is not set.

       /etc/libpaper.d     Directory of scripts to run after the paper size has been changed.   This
                           package  puts no scripts here, but other packages may.  run-parts is used
                           to run the scripts, therefore their names  must  comply  with  run-part's
                           naming requirements.
