                await s.ChangePropertiesAsync(properties => {
                    if (s.PaperKind != System.Drawing.Printing.PaperKind.A4)
                        properties.PaperKind = System.Drawing.Printing.PaperKind.A4;
                    });
                    @* ... *@
        }

            Console.WriteLine($"{nameof(OperationCanceledException)} thrown with message: {e.Message}");
        }
}

Use any of the following properties to define the size of the section’s pages:

PageSize

Allows you to specify a custom height and width. Assign them to the PageSize.Height and PageSize.Width properties. The Rich Text Editor updates the PaperKind property with the matching paper size value or sets the PaperKind property to Custom.

PaperKind

Allows you to match the page size to one of the standard paper sizes. Assign a paper size (a value other than Custom) to the PaperKind property. The Rich Text Editor updates the PageSize settings with matching height and width values.
