[Bug 904323] [NEW] [Printing] White-margins problem

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Printing a PDF file through the Evince document viewer may by default
add white margins both on top and bottom and on both sides, especially
if the PDF file has been created through the LibreOffice PDF-file
export.

One method to fix this issue -- and it seems to work for all cases in
which a PDF file gets printed with too-wide margins, whether having or
not been outputted through LibreOffice -- is to enable "select page size
using document page size" by default.

That way, it seems to me, PDF files would get printed the way they
really were intended to be printed.

For reference, the suggestion has been made to
http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/28971 in the prior.
