i believe i am having a related issue, but let me know if i should file a new report.
however, the problem i am having has to do with scaling down the printed page, it seems. i am trying to print a precise alignment protractor for aligning a turntable's cartridge (attached). the page comes with two lines on it, AA' and BB', which, when printed, should measure exactly 140mm and 200mm, respectively. i have the scaling set to 100% in the print options/page setup. when the PDF is printed in evince (which is 2.24.1 on ubuntu 8.10), the two lines are quite a bit shorter than should be. printing the document using adobe reader for linux (which is version 8.1.3 (outdated, but probably doesn't matter)) on the same computer, with options "page scaling: none" and "auto rotate and center: unchecked" prints the PDF in the correct dimensions. portions of the document get cut off (notably the bottom), probably because the document is for A4 paper, but i only have 8.5x11. i don't see any spot to specify the type of paper to use, so it could be as simple as adding an option to select the paper size. ** Attachment added: "Technics Alignment Protractor" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/29784453/ve_technics_baerwald_arc_protractor.pdf -- Small PDF files are scaled up to papersize when printed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242302 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
