Hello,

i am trying to print some pdf-documents in landscape mode, but the left side of the printout is cut off.
I am sorry in advance but the whole printing functionality in general is full of bugs. I guess it is now 2 years ago since KDE 4 is out and KDE users can not print. This is a fact.
I can not use my favorite browser konqueror because the output is cut off.
I can not use kmail because i have to set the margins and all other settings on every single print.
I can not use okular because of the Lack of printer functionality.

Konqueror is awsome, kmail is great and okular is very cool and sexy. I would like to use this basic applications if i could print. I am addicted to okular and KDE in general, so please please please bring the basic functions back to KDE!
Of course i like new function (why not), but before we get a "social" desktop and things like that we need the basics.
Thanks

Rant somewhere else please, this is the place to report bugs.

Also attach a pdf that has the problem, otherwise your bug is worthless. And to be fair, probably noone is going to fix it because noone is interested in fixing printing.

I myself don't have a printer so even if i wanted to work on it (that i do not) could not help you at all.

PDF-Document1 to print

Try to print this Document in landscape mode. Here my printer: HP LaserJet 4100mfp, HP LaserJet 9050 and HP Color LaserJet 9500. The result is always the same (see next attachment).

Hello!

The result of the printout is depending on the position of the "picture" in the PDF-Document. A higher position of the "picture" in the document means more cut off.

Hi, i just tried to print these two files in Okular 0.19 (KDE Applications 4.13) and it has printed correctly. Please if you can reproduce this problem in Okular >= 0.19 (KDE Applications >= 4.13) reopen this bug.
