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.
