Custom Page size and Microsoft Word, Word 2000, and Word 2003
When you specify a PostScript custom page size in the Paper Size box in the advanced printer properties for a supported printer, the custom size setting appears to be ignored if you have configured Microsoft Word to use the PostScript Custom Page Size setting. Word defaults to the default size of 8.5 by 11 inches. Word is limited to a maximum length of 22 inches.

If you want to use PostScript custom page sizes that are supported by a printer, the only way to make them work correctly in Word is to add custom forms to Windows and then to choose those form names in Word. By using this method, the PostScript Page Size setting in Word is ignored, and the newly added forms are used instead.
