Description Janet 2008-07-18 14:53:26 UTC 
Version:           1.2.9 (using 3.5.9, Debian Package 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-6 (lenny/sid))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.25-9.slh.1-sidux-686

I have configured kmail to use a tiny font size for printing to get more information on one page but kmail just ignores these settings. It doesn't matter which font and font size I try to use, it always uses the same standard font and size for printing.

See also bug 127777, somewhat related.
Comment 2 Janet 2009-02-07 19:40:48 UTC 
Problem still exists in Kmail 1.9.9 - no matter if I use custom fonts or the default ones, Kmail always prints mails in the same huge font size which causes unnecessary waste of paper. Whereas in former Kmail versions there was a workaround (see Bug 106217) now there's no way to have any influence on the printing size though the Kmail option for the printing font size pretends it.

Maybe Bug 127777 is related (very odd "feature") - both could be solved if the user would be given back the control over the printing font size.

Confirmed in trunk too (r948595).
