NAME
       paperconf - print paper configuration information

SYNOPSIS
       paperconf  [ [ -p ] paper | -d |	-a ] [ -z ] [ -n | -N ]	[ -s | -w | -h
       ] [ -c |	-m | -i	]

DESCRIPTION
       paperconf prints	information about a given paper.  The information that
       can be obtained is the name of the paper, its size  and	its  width  or
       height.	 When  called  without arguments, paperconf prints the name of
       the system- or user-specified paper, obtained by	looking	 in  order  at
       the  PAPERSIZE environment variable, at the contents of the file	speci-
       fied by the PAPERCONF environment variable, at the contents  of	${pre-
       fix}/etc/papersize  or  by using	letter as a fall-back value if none of
       the other alternatives are successful.  By default, width and height of
       the paper are printed in	PostScript points.

       -z     If the paper name	is unknown, print it but issue	a  message  on
	      the standard error and exit with a non-zero code.

       -n     Print the	name of	the paper.
