Subject: Re: Should paper size setting be case sensitive (a4 vs A4)?
Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2017 21:51:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170627195124.GB18476@Johns-MBP.home> (raw)

It would be nice to be able to use either a4 or A4, for
either LaTeX or ConTeXt.  This could be achieved with a
bit of effort in the LaTeX and ConTeXt writers.
I suggest opening an issue for this on the github tracker.
