Free Foxit PDF reader installs a PDFprinter by default. PDFprinter has a
couple of properties than can be set in Settings > Printers.

Thanks Matt, looks good, I am hoping to find a free solution but will keep that
option open if I don't.
Regards
Chris.

Check out 2Printer. I've used the trial version recently to test it.
It's got a powerful command line syntax with options to set the paper size.
https://www.cmd2printer.com/ <https://www.cmd2printer.com/>
Here is the very complete documentation on the syntax. I was able to get a list of
available printers, then I was able to get a list of defined paper sizes for my desired
printer, the I was able to print a PDF tabloid (ledger, 11" X 17") from the
command line.

Hi All
We are currently printing some PDF content using the shell print function that
just triggers the default application for opening PDF's to do its stuff. We
have a lot of A5 content which needs to printed to fit A4 paper, is there
another method I could use that would give us this control.
We have tried setting defaults in Acrobat Reader but the fit to page option
isn't one it retains, we are also thinking there might be a more efficient way
of getting the PDF to the printer other than using the default app.
TIA
Chris.
