printing: legal vs letter-size?

[Elton Woo]

Sometimes I need to print to legal-size inThe Gimp, so in 
redhat-config-printer, I set the default page size to legal.
However, in mozilla, when I print to letter-size, the print
starts baout 8 cm / 3.25 in from the top of the page.

What is the prefereble / recommended (defualt printer) setting:
letter-size or legal? Would setting it to letter-size allow me to
get output from The Gimp on legal sized paper?

.. and BTW, what's the *difference* between "American Foolscap"
and "Legal - size". AFAIK, they are both the same, n'est pas?
(8.50 in x 14 in)

TIA,
