Is it possible to configure any settings when creating a PDF from a task? e.g., set page size as A4 instead of 21.587 x 27.937 cm which it appears to default to.

No. It is impossible.

Is printing to PDF the best/recommended approach for getting a detailed report on an individual task?

Can TrackStudio's in built reporting be used to produce something similar? It appears to be more targeted toward summary reports across multiple tasks than a detailed dump of all information related to a single task.

Well I recommend to use MS Word format for it. There you can handle all parameters which you pointed.

Sorry but I don't understand where the MS Word function is available for producing reports from TrackStudio?

[Petr]

it is located on 'main menu' > 'reports' > 'concrete report' > 'format (selectable box)' > 'html,pdf,word,excel'. You choose ms word. Then you generate the report.
I guess you don't see this fuction, because you generate reports from task's view. There you can get only pdf format.

Still lost sorry.

On the tool bar I have a drop down for "Task Management" with an entry for "Reports List". If I select that then I have a tool bar with various entries such as "Create List report", "Create detailed Report", etc. but nothing about MS Word format.

Am I looking in the wrong place?

Please use the List report, you can choose Word as target format there.
