Can someone please tell me in detail how to make papersize default to a4?
I desperately need this, until the teTeX port gets fixed.
I can't print anymore, because my printer chokes on letter size!

Sorry, I'm not that much of an expert on teTeX configuration. That never bothered
me, since, until recently, teTeX always worked out-of-the-box.

Thanks so much.
Rob.
