There indeed is a page size limit, it is documented in the PDF specification ISO 32000-1, Annex C (Implementation Limits) section C.2 (Architectural limits): > The minimum page size should be 3 by 3 units in default user space; the > maximum should be 14,400 by 14,400 units. In versions of PDF earlier than > 1.6, the size of the default user space unit was fixed at 1⁄72 inch, > yielding a minimum of approximately 0.04 by 0.04 inch and a maximum of 200 > by 200 inches. Beginning with PDF 1.6, the size of the unit may be set on > a page-by-page basis; the default remains at 1/72 inch.
