[XeTeX] Specifying papersize with XeTeX

Does anyone know which papersizes are supported by the (plain) XeTeX --papersize option?  (I'm on a Windows XP platform and usually typeset from the command prompt.)  I unexpectedly had to resize something to A5 the other day (for a manufacturing printer who didn't want to handle an A4 PDF with A5 cropmarks), and discovered that

--papersize=a5

works (I just had to adjust my \hoffset and \voffset until the text sat precisely within my cropmarked area), but it would be useful to know what options are available - and also whether one can customize the width and height, just in case I encounter a similar issue with say Demy or another non-DIN/ISO physical page area.

Thanks


John
