Default Print Size?

I am trying to print some stationary for myself and I bought size A7 card stock. Only problem is, when I go to print it I don't have a size A7 option for my paper size. Everything I have tried to do still comes out with it off center, too high, small etc. Any words of wisdom out there? TIA.

This is tricky without knowing anything about your printer, but here are a couple of suggestions.

If 5x7 isn't an option under "plain paper" try to see if it is an option under another paper type such as matte. 5x7-inch is a standard size, especially for photo printers.

Depending on your printer, this may or may not work - create your document as letter size then create your 5x7-inch design at the top left corner leaving the rest of the page blank. Select Letter size in the printer driver but put the 5x7 paper in. It should print at the top left corner.
