Hi, guys.
I'm a beginner in the Latex world.
I'd like to use B5 size format and want it to be printed in A4 paper.
The problem is that the context aligns left top direction but I want it to locate center of the paper.
I've searched various topics but it was like finding a needle in haystack.

B5 format in A4 sheet
The crop package supports exactly what you want. Consider the following code example.
The actual page dimensions are set with the geometry package.
