Email was not sent from a Canon Network!

Charles,

WRT to the following requested size name:

    om_india-legal_215x345mm

it seems like there is still some confusion about its standardization.  Based on the information below we might want:

    om_india-legal-1_215x335mm
    om_india-fs_215x345mm
    om_india-legal-2_215x355mm

Thoughts?

The former, FS, is 345 mm tall, i.e. the size requested by Canon, whereas the latter, Legal, is the only one to have two different values given for its height: 335 mm and 355 mm. However, it is unclear whether those are alternatives or minimum and maximum.
