Steve, Does it matter where I set the maximum lines per page in DBT?  Should 
the desired lines per page setting be one number less than the lines per page I 
set on the Juliet?  This paper I bought on sale and there is no return.  I 
think they didn't advertise it with the tractor feeds on the 8-1/2 side or I 
would not have purchased it.

Ann,

Depending on how close to the top and bottom of the page you want your 
margins to be, you could set the desired lines per page to 17 or 18.  I 
think you can get away with 18, but you may need to experiment just to see 
what works.  You might also want to change the Juliet's form length from 11 
to 8 inches (18.8-E).  According to my math, you get about 2.5 lines per 
inch on a page.  So, if you allow 1/2 inch at top and bottom, you get 7 
times 2.5 or 17.5 lines per page on an 8-1/2 inch piece of paper.  You 
could set the Juliet up to print sideways, but that's fairly slow, and 
introduces a different set of problems.  I think I would just send the 
paper back to APH and get them to send you what you ordered.  Let me know 
how you make out with this problem.
