(Print Set-Up) AIX vs. Windows server [XI R2]

We have a LANDSCAPE-LEGAL report that runs OK to PDF on our Windows BOE-XI (R2) server. It produces a PDF document in LANDSCAPE-LEGAL format.

When we publish the same RPT-file to our AIX - BOE-XI (R2) server the report runs to PDF, but the PDF document is in LETTER-LEGAL format, and crops-off the data on the three-inches at the right-hand margin.

In the CMC both Objects are set to use the "Report file default" for page layout on the "Print Setup" tab.

My guess is that the Windows OS includes DEFAULT generic print-drivers for the BOE services to use when generating the PDF, but there are no equivalent DEFAULT generic print-drivers in the AIX operating system.

Anyone had this problem before - and know the fix...?

Thanks in advance!
