PDF exports: default paper size and dimensions

[bminehart]

I'd like to change two behaviors about the PDF export dialog box.

1) Can I change the default paper size to "Letter", system wide, instead of the current default of "A4"?

2) Can I change the displayed paper size units from metric (currently shows millimeters) to Imperial (fractional inches)?

Hi Ben, 

As far as I know, there is no out of the box option to achieve this. 

To do so, you need to write a plugin that would hook on the PDF configuraiton directive and modify it. 

With the above being said, we have develoepd a free  officialy supported plugin that does that for you and allows you to set default values to all the options of the PDF dialog.

We still havne't got to launch it to the marketpalce. You know how to reach me to but feefree to add our [email protected] email for quicker responses (:
