Theres no GUI way to do it, but you could make a try at copying your file, 
then with the copy, temporarily setting your margins to the new size to see 
how your objects fit on the page, close it, and then edit the SLA file header 
to set the page height and width in there. Reopen and see how it looks.

Other than that, the suggested way is to start a new document and import the 
pages.. both would have the same effect.
