Convert Google Docs to PDF with custom page size
Not every document belongs on a standard Letter or A4 sheet. Docs to PDF lets you choose from common presets or define exact dimensions so the output matches your printing or distribution requirements.
Common presets
A4 (210 x 297 mm), US Letter (8.5 x 11 in), and Legal (8.5 x 14 in) are available as one-click presets. These cover the vast majority of business and academic printing needs.
Custom dimensions
Need a half-letter flyer, a square layout, or a specific poster size? Enter width and height in inches or millimeters and the PDF is generated at those exact dimensions. This avoids scaling artifacts from resizing after export.
Regional differences
A4 is the default standard in most of Europe, Asia, and South America, while US Letter dominates in North America. If you share documents internationally, choosing the right page size prevents awkward margins when recipients print locally.
Margin control
Custom page sizes work together with adjustable margins. Set narrow margins for maximum content area or wider margins for binding and annotation space. The extension previews how content reflows before you export.
When custom sizes matter
Booklets, handouts, signage, and regulatory filings often require non-standard dimensions. Setting the correct page size at export time is far easier than reformatting in a PDF editor after the fact.
