You can set a standard paper size (like A4) by selecting it from the predefined list using OdDbPlotSettingsValidator object: ::odrxDynamicLinker()->loadModule(OdPlotSettingsValidatorModuleName); OdDbPlotSettingsValidatorPtr pPlotValidator = svcs->plotSettingsValidator();

OdResult res = pPlotValidator->setPlotCfgName(pPlotSettings, "DWG To PDF.pc3");
res = pPlotValidator->setCanonicalMediaName(pPlotSettings, OD_T("ISO_A4_(297.00_x_210.00_MM)"));
