Setting global pdf width when using asciidoctor-pdf

Hi all!
I'd need to set the width of pdf generated by asciidoctor-pdf to be 7.48 inches so that it's compliant with a Kindle book format.
I've tried settings in the top header:

= Title of the book
:source-highlighter: coderay
:icons: font
:pdfwidth: 7.48in

But the width seems not affected....
Do I have to provide it in a different way ?
Thanks
Francesco

Francesco,

Currently, the default width can only be set via the theme.

https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-pdf/blob/master/docs/theming-guide.adoc#keys-image

It seems reasonable to be able to control it via the document as well. I recommend submitting an issue if that interests you.

Cheers,

-Dan
