[GEMPAK #AFG-179015]: NMAP2 Configuration

> Marcus,
> 
> The postscript driver code:
> $GEMPAK/source/driver/active/ps/pinita.c and psdatt.c have some code
> that sets the /Letter, /Tabloid, /Roll1, or /Roll2 based
> on the X;Y sizes used in the DEVICE parameter.
> 
> If you have modified psopen.c to define /A3, you will also have to modify
> those 2 routines to pick the /A3 based on the sizes you pass. At the moment,
> the code just looks for ranges to assume the type, but you need to add
> your specific range before the more general to prevent /Tabloid from
> being chosen to automate that decision.
> 
> If you have already generated some ps files, then you can simply
> edit the ps file and change the "papername" line from /Tabloid to /A3 if
> you had added the /A3 size into the prolog.
