Printing checks - last little hitch.

[Doug Laidlaw]

I found where the field positions are set in Gnucash 2+ and have a standard 
Aussie check working.  The last problem is placing them vertically.  Using A4 
paper, both the U.S. and A4 checks are O.K. in print preview, but print about 
28 mm (1.1 inch) too high.  This is neither the difference between A4 and 11 
inch paper (A4 is 17.6 mm longer) nor the bottom tear-off margin (17 mm) nor 
the sum of the two.

In earlier versions, check positions were calculated from the bottom, 
following Postscript.  Now they are calculated from the top, so it would seem 
that there is an adjustment for page height somewhere.  I can't find it in 
the config files, and the "Translation" field in checks/gnomeprint seems to 
do nothing. (I used points when changing that.)

I can't find anything by googling.  Any guidance would be appreciated.  Since 
gnucash started in Germany, and Germany invented the international paper 
sizes, someone should have made gnucash work with A4.

TIA,

Doug.
