Problem description: 

This problem has persisted for many versions and is still extant in 4.0.1.2.  If I change the page format to anything other than letter format (8.5x11) the print dialogue will not recognise it.  Most often I want to print to a legal format (8.5x14) and Draw cannot accommodate.

Steps to reproduce:
1. open a new document
2. change page format to legal (Format -> Page -> Paper Format-Format-Legal)
3. create some content
4. print document (File -> Print...)

Current behavior:

Crops page to letter format.

Expected behavior:

Prints a proper legal format document.
Operating System: Mac OS X
Version: 4.0.1.2 release
