Adding paperType configuration parameter to the docbook
parent pom inside the configuration section for the pdf
changes the paper format.

For example:
<paperType>A4</paperType>

Whats the correct place to set this parameter ?
Changing the parent docbook pom is a little unhandy,
because then all the docbooks depending on it
must be changed to the correct version of the parent
docbook pom.

I wrote this a few years ago.  I do not know if this still
works, nor do I know why it vanished from the page.

Hi,

does someone remember how the pdf docbook can be
generated in A4 or even A3 or A5 for testing ?
It used to be explained on the website, but
it somehow changed with the new build process
and the documentation wasn't updated.

Thanks,
Jörn
