The Ledger size is correctly defined. Ledger is 17x11 inches, landscape
format. The size you make out of it is Tabloid, 11x17 inches, portrait
format. See
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/ps/5003.PPD_Spec_v4.3.pdf,
page 191 and 192 and also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_size.
Tabloid is probably already available in these PPD files.
The bug is in the JRE. The PPD specs do not require the width of the
paper being smaller than the height. The JRE must be able to read paper
sizes which are defined in Landscape orientation.
