RE: Print Issue

I haven't looked at the site in question here, but just thought I would
point out that Australian A4 paper and American A4 are different in size.

Australian A4 is 11 and a half inches long by 8 and a quarter inches wide.
American A4 is 11 inches long by 8 and a half inches wide.

Probably useless information, but I just thought I would throw it in.
