This would occur if getPageDimension() is called before a page have
been created.
To me this looks like a bug in the thirdparty app, because the page
dimensions wouldn't be known until the page exists, and this is the
first instance of this problem in the 7 years retepPDF has been in
existence. getPageDimension() may work for normal printers where the
media is fixed, but in PDF, the media is only defined once it's
created.

Yes, PDF.getPrintJob() does exactly that.
