I don't really understand what you're trying to say.

Can you maybe take some pictures and attach them here to illustrate the problem?

Good morning gentlemen,
Attached 6 pictures.
view.png and view2.png are screenshots of pages viewed side by side in
okular
printPreview.png and printPreview2.png screenshots of the same pages but of
the print preview function in okular
IMG_1863.jpg and IMG1864.jpg are pictures just taken with my iPhone of the
pages as printed.

Please note:
the actual print was done on an HP Office jet ( @home, just now ) and an
Epson ?? (@office). Same result in both cases.

If you require more information please let me know!

Kind regards,
Piet de Weerdt

I don't really see any problem in the printed pages. Can you elaborate what's wrong?

Good morning gentlemen,
I have attached two images.
The one from yesterday showing that the headers and footers do not align on
odd/even pages. That would be IMG_1864.jpg

I quickly printed the same using evince. That would be IMG_1866.jpg

Exact same setting on the printer etc.....

Notice that the headers and footers align in evince print,  but not in the
okular print

Kind regards,
Piet de Weerdt
