Ann,
Thinking about it after seeing your question, I'd try setting the lines per
page to 19 on the Juliet, and the maximum lines per page in DBTW to 19 as
well. Then, I'd set the desired lines per page in DBTW to 18. I think
everything will be ok as long as the Juliet's setting and DBTW's maximum
lines per page are at least one higher than the desired lines per page.
Too bad you can't return the paper. I guess we know why it was on sale.

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.
