[opensuse] leap422 okular printing issue
Printing an A4 page from Okular makes it come out scaled down to what looks like 2/3 size. Printing to the same printserver from 13.1 works fine. I don't even know where to begin to look.

I assume it is a PDF. I have not printed from okular recently, I prefer to use adobe (!). Evince some times. But I suppose the print menu has options for scaling manual or automatically. Hum, the 42.2 install I have doesn't have okular installed, so I can't look. Nor do I have a printer here, anyway... - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

HA! On 13.1 & 13.2 if I use adobe to print a PDF the print is shifted a couple inches up. This is consistent. Anything else prints the PDF properly positioned. Not knowing where to look and not knowing why this is different from the 11.x I simply took a "don't do that!" response :-( -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

There were recently some issues with okular + ghostscript in 13.x and upwards that were fixed by a ghostscript update. I am not sure, but that might be related. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yes it is, I should have said. Printing to the same printserver also works from many other systems - Windows, openSUSE 10/12/13. Not sure about Leap421.

I decided to go with okular a while back - get used to it, find the weaknesses. It looks pretty good in leap42x, less good in 13.x, but apart from some hassle with the printer options (paper type, paper size, input and output trays) it works.
Evince some times. But I suppose the print menu has options for scaling manual or automatically.
It has the multiple pages per output page option, otherwise I don't see any scaling options. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (0.8°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Remarkably, it works in Leap421 so clearly a regression. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1015478 -- Posted with knode 4.14 from openSUSE Leap42.1 office34: Cyrix 486DX2/66MHz, 4096Mb RAM, #9 GXE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I just looked on 42.2 and looked everywhere in the print box, there are no options for size. Not good. But perhaps KDE adjusts that in the print applet or whatever is called, outside of the application. I can not check that. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
