Yes, maybe. This would be much more possible than supporting
arbitrary paper sizes. I've tested the following definition of
@bsixpaper:
\def\bsixpaper{{\globaldefs = 1
\afourpaper
\internalpagesizes{140mm}{100mm}%
{-6.35mm}{-12.7mm}%
{\bindingoffset}{14pt}%
{176mm}{125mm}%
\globaldefs = 0
}}
and it seems to produce OK results, at least for some pages without
hard-to-break lines. Could you give this a go and report if any of
the parameters should be changed? You could use it by inserting
@tex
\gdef\bsixpaper{{\globaldefs = 1
\afourpaper
\internalpagesizes{140mm}{100mm}%
{-6.35mm}{-12.7mm}%
{\bindingoffset}{14pt}%
{176mm}{125mm}%
\globaldefs = 0
}}
@end tex
@bsixpaper
near the start of your input file.
