These things involve the tabs of the Inspector. The Inspector is different in LXFree and LXFree Java.

The plot size is set using the document tab which in both cases has an icon that looks like a plain file icon (a piece of paper with the corner folded down).

In LXFree, the document size is page based, that is it is set in terms of pages for the eventual output. You can create a custom paper size in the Page Setup dialog if you wanted a specific non-page based size.

In LXFree Java, the page size is set in the scale units such as 20m x 30m. You select the scale you want to use in the Document tab as well.

All the information attached to a symbol is edited in the Inspector's Info Tab. This is the tab with the blue icon with the white "i" in the center.

The information is shown for the selected symbol(s). If there is no information showing, you have not selected a symbol. If you have more than one symbol selected, the information is shown for the first one. However, if you edit the information, it will change for ALL selected symbols!

(In LXFree the inspector will show an ellipsis (...) after a field that has multiple values for more than one selected object.)
