I tested my hypothesis above. I made a Live USB stick with space to save settings and updates. I used ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso. After changing languge settings to finnish and installing all localization files I opened Firefox for the first time. Paper size in firefox was letter, not A4 as it is supposed to be.
Then I changed the variable print.postscript.paper_size to iso_a4 in Firefox config, closed and reopened Firefox and checked if the paper size change persisted. It did, also it was still A4. After that I did sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get upgrade. After that and restarting Firefox the paper size was still A4. I think this proves my guess was wrong. There is something else that changes the paper size _back_ to letter size from A4 because this happens to me quite often. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/10910 Title: Default page size for printing is letter Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in firefox package in Baltix: Confirmed Bug description: (Default warty install, dist-upgraded to hoary, language chosen is Norwegian) about:config reports that print.postscript.paper_size is letter, which is wrong for Norway, it should be A4.
