Description illumilore 2015-01-16 01:36:26 UTC 
When printing 2 sided pdfs from okular, it zooms them out even though they fit the full page from the print preview

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Albert Astals Cid 2015-01-16 22:36:29 UTC 
What do you mean zoomed out?

Need much more info, like the document you're using, a photo of the printed thing, etc.
Comment 2 illumilore 2015-01-17 02:01:42 UTC 
Upon further investigation it seems to be defaulting the page size to letter? Why is it doing that? is there something in the pdf that can make it default to a page size when printing?
Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2015-01-17 22:36:17 UTC 
It may be that it defaults to letter, what is your default in cups?

$ grep DefaultPage /etc/cups/ppd/*
Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2015-02-14 22:15:52 UTC 
If you can provide the information requested in comment #3, please add it.
Comment 5 illumilore 2015-02-14 23:50:27 UTC 
grep DefaultPage /etc/cups/ppd/*
*DefaultPageSize: A4
*DefaultPageRegion: A4


Can a pdf file set any of the size defaults for that particular print?
Comment 6 Albert Astals Cid 2015-02-15 21:46:34 UTC 
What's the page size of the pdf you are printing?
Comment 7 illumilore 2015-02-15 23:46:07 UTC 
How do I get okular to tell me what the pdf size is?
Comment 8 Albert Astals Cid 2015-02-16 22:16:50 UTC 
file->properties

Albert, wrong duplicate?
Comment 11 Albert Astals Cid 2015-03-16 20:50:59 UTC 
Waiting for the file size
Comment 12 illumilore 2015-03-16 21:18:09 UTC 
It seems to have been caused by something making the printer default to a smaller paper size. I don't know what made it default to that, but it is not happening now.
