Hi, Daniel,
You can create a custom page size using the add-on for Docs called Page Sizer. You can get it by going to Add-ons (in the tool bar) > Get add-ons and then searching for it by name.
Once you find it, just press the blue Free button to add it to Docs. You can then access it by clicking on Add-ons in the tool bar to display all the add-ons you have.
Although this can create a custom page size, your printer must be able to accommodate that size paper, and you must have it set up and selected on your printer in order for it to print properly. If you have questions about how to do that, you will need to consult your user manual or contact the manufacturer of your printer.

For my wife, who needed me to set up 7" x 10" cards for writing cards, I used 8.5" x 11" then set the margins to the left. When I did it the "right" way by setting the margins to the center at 1.25" on 3 sides leaving the top at .5" the printer apparently knows we've moved the paper tray fences in on those 3 sides to accommodate the smaller paper. It assumes the right spot, and moves the printing to the right by about 1".
This plugin doesn't work no matter what we tried.
If you want to know how to do that, maybe I should do a video for my wife's YouTube channel teaching others how we do it.

Karl, when you say that the add-on doesn't work right, could you please elaborate on the problem you had? I haven't had any issues at all with using this add-on so I don't know what you're referring to.
