maximum width

When loading a report that another developer created, I got an error
message saying that the deserialization failed because the width value
needs to be between 0 and 85.3333 in. I was able to get around this by
opening the RDL file in notepad and changing the width values manually.
But my questions is, how was the developer able to set the width >
85.3333 if it was not allowed?Probably, the report was manually edited.
As for the 85.3 in limit - in RS 2000 SP2 it will increase to 160 in.
