Custom Paper Sizes

Knowing how your printer / computer interact to allow for custom paper sizes is important. This is especially true for the holiday greeting card season. All of Red River's pre-scored papers for cards require you to setup and use a custom paper size. The process is easy. It also allows you to use odd size papers and special setups for custom inkjet creations.

Our main tutorial on custom paper sizes is here.

OS X Tiger users - read the above tutorial then go here for a note on paper margins.

Web Site Features Part 1


Ease of use and simple design are hallmarks of Red River Paper's website. We will post links to helpful features of the site from time to time in case you have not noticed them before.

Today's feature is the FastOrder page. If you know the catalog numbers of the items you need, and especially if you are ordering different papers or inks, this page is for you. Just enter the number, quantity, and click Add to Cart button at the bottom. You can add up to 10 different items at a time! The FastOrder page is accessible from the home page. Check it out for yourself here.

OS X Tiger Update

A small update to our OS X Tiger / greeting card information page is now available. There were some reports of printing trouble with our card sizes using 10.4 and the custom paper setup. It appears the problems were mostly setting errors, but you need to keep an eye on the custom paper margins and note that as the first place to look if you have trouble. The update page is here.
