== Description ==
As the name suggests, <The first argument of {{cmd>|setuppapersize</cmd> sets }} is the dimension a page will have. The second argument is the paper size for typesetting (of the first argument) as well as paper the paper size pages will be printed on; see {{cmd|setuparranging}} for printing (placing multiple pages on a sheet. If the second argument). The second argument is optional; if omitted, it defaults the paper size is assumed to equal the value of the first argumentpage size.
For example:
<texcode>
\setuppapersize[letter,landscape][letter,landscape,oversized]
</texcode>
sets the size of the pages to letter size (landscape), and the size of the paper (before cutting) to oversized letter size to , which has edges that are 1.5 cm longer. <tt>letter</tt> paper, which is a pre-defined paper sizepapersize; one can define one's own papersizes using {{cmd|definepapersize}}. Other pre-defined paper sizes include:
There are several options one can use to modify a predefined paper size:* <tt>letterportrait</tt>, <tt>ledger</tt>, <tt>tabloid</tt>, <tt>legal</tt>, <tt>folio</tt>, and <tt>executive</tt> sizes from : the North American default paper standard;* sizes <tt>A0</tt> &ndash; <tt>A10</tt>are 'standing up', <tt>B0</tt> &ndash; <tt>B10</tt>, and <tt>C0</tt> &ndash; <tt>C10</tt> from the A, B, and C series of the ISO-216 standard;taller than they are wide.* sizes <tt>RA0landscape</tt> &ndash; <tt>RA4</tt> and <tt>SRA0</tt> &ndash; <tt>SRA4</tt> from : turn the RA and SRA series of ISO-217 paper standard;90 degrees so it is lying down* sizes <tt>C6/C5samesized</tt>, <tt>DL</tt>, and <tt>E4</tt> from ISO-269 standard envelope sizes;* <tt>envelope 9</tt> &ndash; <tt>envelope 14</tt> sizes from : same size as the American postal standard;first argument* sizes <tt>G5oversized</tt> and <tt>E5</tt> from the Swedish SIS-014711 standard: adds 1.
