Version: 3.1.4 (using KDE KDE 3.1.4) Installed from: Mandrake RPMs OS: Linux I can't modify print font size to get the contents fitting in more or less pages: I have always the same standard font size output when printing:that's not a bad size but I should have the possibility to change the number of pages the printer is going to print. It should correspond to the current zoom level
This problem still exists in KDE 3.2.1. The default font seems much too big for me! I should be able to configure the default printer font and size separately.
These might be places to attack the problem: kdelibs/khtml/khtml_printsettings.cpp and kdelibs/khtml/khtmlview.cpp:KHTMLView::print(bool quick) I have not tried it because I don't have a working cvs version running here but the problem probably boils down to changing m_part->xmlDocImpl()->styleSelector()->computeFontSizes(&metrics, 100); in kdelibs/khtml/khtmlview.cpp:KHTMLView::print(bool quick) to something like m_part->xmlDocImpl()->styleSelector()->computeFontSizes(&metrics, (int)(100*myZoomFactor)); If that is correct, it should be really simple to implement this wish.
I'm sorry Dominic Battre..I don't understand this
I'm using 3.2.2 and can't figure out how to change the fonts/scaling for printouts. (The viewed size doesn't affect printed size.)
Created attachment 5898 [details] Display and printout font difference I have this problem too: base and smallest font set up to 9pt. But in the printout I get HUGE symbols (~14pt). Turn attention also on too closed to each other symbols.
Could there be a (configurable) "fyzzy scaler" that would scale the printout up/down depending on persentage of fuzziness given by the user? I mean if user have indicated that he/she could live with +-10% scaling to fit the page to either one page less (in case <10% of the printout would go to the next page) or to scale the printout to the end of the page (if there is <10% free space on the last page)?!? And of course similar schemas than there is in kwrite? That's very usable thing that have given huge amount of control (so if the end result sucks you can blame yourself only, not kde people ;-) to comfort to the environment/equipment user happen to have...
As of 7/18/2004, this bug still exists for me in Konqueror 3.2.3 I'm getting problems with font sizes as well when printing web pages from Konqueror. Frequently, the fonts are way too big, making printouts look like children's coloring books. Adding an option to specify printed font size would be great.
Adding my vote for this option. I can't use konq to print an html invoice from sql-ledger (accounting program) since 3.2. Last worked correctly here with 3.1.1.
Problem still exists in kde 3.3.1(a). Font size about 14-16pt. Here on Suse 9.0 with newer rpm's. Why not just re-use the functionality of kmail? There you can easyly adjust printout font and size for the mail-printout.
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75657#c6 shows how you can do it right now.
@Maksim: Where do i have to set this up? Additional info: not even fonts are scaled to large, even images, combo boxes, sliders, _everything_ is about 50% to large. Try to print out this page! :)
have a look at bug 100604
I experience very small font sizes in printouts of konqueror and kmail. e.g. mails received from expedia.de (travel bookings) include links which are twice the width of the rest of the text. When printing these mails from kmail or from a webmailer from konqueror, the link is not broken into multiple lines or cutted at the edge of the page. The whole link is printed, therefore the font size is rendered very small to be able to print the link in one size. The font are so small that they are nearly unreadable. An ability to tweak the font size of html printout would be great.
Hi all, just to know, are there any news (from kde3.x and kde4)?
