I have a full orchestra score that I created on 11x17 paper size. I am trying to create a PDF of this score, using print/PDF/Save as PDF. The only actual printer I have connected to my computer does not accommodate 11x17 paper, so in the paper selection drop-down, the 11x17 paper size is grayed out and not selectable. As a result, when I hit save as PDF I get a screen that says "The size of some pages in this document does not match the size of the paper in the printer. Do you wish to continue?"
Is there a work around for this?
Many thanks!

I think you should be able to create a pdf which is larger that what your printer allows.
• Page Setup window : use Manage Custom Sizes (at the bottom of the pop-up menu) to add the missing page format. Select it.
• When you print, make sure (in the print window -> Paper Size) that the new paper size is selected, otherwise you may get the message you describe.
