I like everything else about firefox except for this one infuriating bug. This bug was first filed in 2004. It's now 2013. I've just upgraded to Firefox 24.0 on Debian and my default paper size has, once again as it does every upgrade, reverted to the US_Letter papersize.
I live in the other 96% of the world that uses A4 paper, so every time I try to print from Firefox I get an error message on my printer. OpenOffice and Libreoffice get the paper size right. GIMP gets the paper size right. Inkscape gets the papersize right. Abiword gets the paper size right. Gedit gets the paper size right. Tuxpaint gets the papersize right. EVERY OTHER program I use under any distro of Linux manages to correctly determine that I use A4 paper and doesn't give me any problems. But not Firefox. Firefox defaults to US_Letter. Even though my printer is set for A4. Even though my language is en_NZ. Even when I've manually changed ALL of the defaults back to A4 under about:config it still bloody-mindedly sets everything back to US-Letter every singe time there's some minor point- update of Firefox. Firefox is the ONLY program that does this. And it's been doing it far too long. Pleas, for the love of Free Software, FIX THIS BUG. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/10910 Title: Default page size for printing is letter To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/10910/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
