Though there are PCL printing systems with paper trays that can handle A5 paper size, the PCL driver can not handle size A5, which is a "known paper size". The following command line, with an A5 size PDF as input, creates a C5 size PCL output: gswin32 -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=ljet4d -sPAPERSIZE=a5 -dNORANGEPAGESIZE - sOutputFile=test.pcl -c "<< /InputAttributes << 0 << /PageSize [ 420 595 ] >> >> >> setpagedevice " -f test.pdf The following line needs to be added in gdevpcl.c CHECK_PAPER_SIZE( 5.83, 8.27, PAPER_SIZE_A5); The following line needs to be added in gdevpcl.h #define PAPER_SIZE_A5 25 /* 14.8 cm x 21.0 cm */
