There are two preferences worthwhile to be set for printing of page previews (soft printing) from the Pages main tab.

Preference

Description

Variable

Always auto-adjust paper to page size

Tick, if you want that paper is auto-adjusted on the page size when printing to PDF.

Recommended: unticked

Note: if the content you usually print is always on the same page size, then the appropriate paper size is set within the print preset. But, if you usually print many paper sizes, and want to handle all of them with the same print preset, then select this option - otherwise, all pages but one will be printed on the unsuitable paper size.

F_AutoAdjustPaperSizeAlways

Always auto-adjust paper to page size only if paper is smaller

Tick, if you want that paper is auto-adjusted on the page size when printing to PDF, and the paper, selected in the print config, is smaller than page.

Recommended: unticked

Note: if the content you usually print is always on the same page size, then the appropriate paper size is set within the print preset. But, if you usually print many paper sizes, and want to handle all of them with the same print preset, then select this option - otherwise, all pages but one will be printed on the unsuitable paper size.
