Hi Regina, hi Philipp!

My initial impressions:
* I don't really get the point :-)
* I had a look at the Adobe Acrobat and I think that it is a rather technical
dialog and requires much space...
* Showing the size does only help if people use the same settings throughout the
whole document, otherwise they have to scan all pages manually. That doesn't
help them.
* The real sizes are not that helpful (e.g. when showing them besides the
document page) if people are unable to judge the sizes. How many people do
really know the size (+/- 2 cm) of DIN ISO A4? 5%? Less? :-)
* How does it relate to the size settings in Draw/Impress? It seems that those
settings already address some of the issues page vs. page setting.

However, just to get the point...
If the page size settings from the printer differ from the page settings of the
document, then user wishes that the system prevents wrong printout.

Some questions with regard to the problems:
1) Where do you set "Fit to Page"? Is that a printer setting?

2) Why does that happen? Why does your printer use "Letter"?

3) When does that happen? I'm sorry, I don't get the point why different
settings are manually entered by the user. At least it seems so.

I have some additional idea in mind how to solve that. But first I would like to
better understand that - even on UX discuss if it seems better suited. But,
thank you very much Regina for your ideas and mockups. It's so easy to ask /
criticize, because you already provided so much material. Thanks!
