Why not set the paper to A4 and then set the margins to produce the same text area (centered on the A4 paper) that you would have with B5? (Assuming I'm understanding this correctly.)
Or set up your toolchain to create the final B5 format (which might not be trivial - use pdflatex), and then set in Acrobat 'auto-rotate and centre' (but no rescaling) to print on A4.
HTH, KonradP.S. But it is (at least to me) a bit unclear what your problem is (what works, and what not).
