/* \brief This class represents physical page sizes.

The main difference to the SimplePageSize class are the following.

- This class knows about standard page sizes and accepts page sizes in
  various formats, e.g. as a string "DIN A4", or by specifiying the
  page width and height. Several units (inch, millimeters,
  centimeters) are possible.

- It is made sure that page width an hight are always in a resonable
  range, which is currently set to 5cm .. 50cm

- The default constructor provides a locale-depending default.
