> I have found it will NOT handle odd oversize paper specifications. It will make PDFs just fine if the pages are sized at a standard like 11 x 17, or 8.5 x 11. But if I try a paper size like 12 x 14, the resulting PDF comes out with page dimensions of 8.5 x 11, and the content is truncated improperly.

As I recall, you also have to set the Page sizes inside Word to make that work correctly.

I do not remember Word 2013, but in the latest version that I have, the menu item "Layout->Size" gets you where you need to set this.
