LaTeX and page sizes
I used LaTeX to create the pdf files for the print editions of my books. They are short and illustrated with lots of verse in, and I thought A5 would be a fine format for those. I still think it's fine.

But shortly I will have to format some books (for paperback fiction) in non-A5 format. Worse, it will be some custom paper format that might seem normal for a paperback book but that LaTeX will not recognise as a standard paper size.

Does anyone know how to get around this to define custom paper sizes for book formatting in LaTeX? Or should I give up already and try a different approach to typesetting? Thanks.
