Hello Thomas, What I meant by paper size is what size of paper you are going to use to print on (ie 8.5 x 11, 11 x 17 etc). Basically I have a page setup where the user can set/select paper size. Now I would pass the paper size to the transcoder so that when the svg is converted to pdf, pdf would show as it being/placed on say 8.5 x 11 paper. When I use 8.5 x 11 size the resultant pdf shows a paper size of 8.25 x 6.38.
