PDF print with custom papersize

When setting the Paper size to "Custom" and print to pdf it takes always A4 for generating the pdf.
If I set the paper size to A3 or letter it works, the only problem is with "custom".

-> Windows Server 2016


What's wrong here ? Any ideas ?

As a workaround setting up a printer which supports the custom page format and set it manually before printing does the trick:

iConfigure("YourWindowsPrintername")
AFile = fWebDir()+"\Test.pdf"
iDestination(iPDF, AFile)
iPrintReport(RPT_Test)
FileDisplay(AFile,"application/pdf")


Hopefully this helps someone out, instead of wasting hours.
