Settings for PdfPage. Values fall back through three levels: document → SDK → built-in default. Writes target the document only when set on a document's settings, otherwise the SDK globally when set on SdkSettings.

**Tags:** `Format`, `Advanced`

```python

from nutrient_sdk import PdfPageSettings

```

## Construction

`PdfPageSettings` is accessed through a [`Document`](/api/python/document/) instance for per-document overrides, or via [`SdkSettings`](/api/python/settings/document/sdk-settings/) for SDK-wide defaults.

```python

# Per-document override

with Document.open("input.pdf") as doc:
    settings = doc.settings.pdf_page_settings
    settings.some_field = new_value          # mutate fields directly

# SDK-wide default (applies to all documents)

SdkSettings.pdf_page_settings.some_field = new_value

```

Settings are configured by writing to fields on the returned object. The settings property itself cannot be reassigned — `doc.settings.pdf_page_settings = other_settings` is rejected.

## Properties

### page_size

```python

@property
def page_size(self) -> PdfPageSizes

@page_size.setter
def page_size(self, value: PdfPageSizes) -> None

```

The page size for PDF documents.

**Type:** [`PdfPageSizes`](/api/python/enums/pdf-page-sizes/)

**Default:** `PdfPageSizes.PdfPageSizeA4`
