Link paper size to dwg file

Is there any way to link custom paper size, or A4 but with edited marigines, to dwg file?

I've created "template" file with some customised standard paper sizes, problem is that plot works fine on computer where that dwg file is created, but when i try to plot it on another computer there is no paper size that i created. That file will be used multiple times and copied all over the projects, so i would like to link/save into the dwg those paper sizes:. 

Thanks

Paper size is tied to the printer driver and/or PC3/PMP file(s).

 

The page setup which is saved in the drawing contains a pointer to the printer and the paper size, but it can't edit the PC3/PMP files on a different system to make custom paper sizes available.

The problem with anything custom is that it needs to be shared. The sizes need to be available on each system creating prints. Remember this if there is a need to share the files with others. They in turn probably won't have those sizes available even though the file calls for it.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.
