Print size does not default to form size when printing PDF form.

So, we have created an interactive new client form for our firm. The form was created in LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 and is set to legal size (8.5 x 14). After the form was completed and exported, it was filled out for testing and printed. During the printing process it was noticed that in the print dialog box, the dimentions for the form were wrong. It showed that the default document size was 8.5 x 11. Where and how is this changed in LC?
A new form was created (starting from scratch) with the document settings set to legal again, and inside of LC in the PDF preview panel, I tried to print and the same thing occured.

Please advise as how to set the document to its default size when printing without have to do it in the print dialog box.

The print dialog doesn't display the forms dimensions but those of the currently selected paper format of your printer.

If you change the page format in the printer driver the diemensions in the preview will change too.
