Setting custom size of 34 in by 22 in

Hi, I am using LibreCAD SCM Revision 2.0.9 and I have been attempting to specify a custom paper size of 34 inch width by 22 inch width without success.

I have set the unit to inch for the Application Preferences and the main drawing unit to inch for the Current Drawing Preferences.

Instead of seeing 34 for the paper width and 22 for the paper height, I am seeing 0.0527 and 0.0341 respectively.

How can I set the paper size to 34 inches by 22 inches?

Thank you.

There is indeed a bug with setting custom paper sizes in inches. It is improved but not yet ironed out completely in the recent 2.2.0 rc version. You can try this file made with it, for scale 1:1:inches_34_22.dxf
Don't try to edit the paper size settings as it seems it gets ruined then. If you want a different printing scale, scale up the frame accordingly (x600?) or delete it.

You could also just use ARCH D instead, 24x36, a bit larger.

Hi, thank you for sharing the file with the scale.

I hope that the bug eventually gets worked out in the future.
