For smaller page size you must generate a special printer description file.
Look to the directory /oracle/sqlreportwriter/admin/printers. There schould be
a file named PRINTDEF.DAT. Create a new printer description in this file and 
generate it with the "printdef" utility. For nearer information look to the
Reportwriter manual, page B-4.
