Paper length is set by .pl command.  Troff has no concept of paper
width; you adjust line length and page offset using .ll and .po
respectively.  If you're using -ms macros which give a line length of
6 inches, try prefixing your input with

  .pl 29.7c
  .po 2.88c

and your text should be centred on an A4 page.
