Tres Finocchiaro commented on PDFBOX-3453:
------------------------------------------
[~jahewson] I would appreciate any further explanation or troubleshooting.
In the case of the PrintRequestAttributes, they ARE working and ARE honored by
Java EXCEPT when used with PDFBOX.
For example, I can print an image and specify Chromacity and Paper size.
Once we combine those attributes with PDFBOX they are ignored and the incorrect
page size is selected.
Although this bug may not be caused by your code, the details we raise with
Oracle will eventually lead to its resolve. Please advise.

> Key: PDFBOX-3453
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3453
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Environment: Java 8 u77, MacOS 10.11
> Reporter: Tres Finocchiaro
> Priority: Critical
>
> On MacOS, when supplying custom attributes to the print interface, it has the
> reverse effect and ignores the attributes specified, including the page size.
> In the below example, the page size will default to US Letter (8.5 x 11)
> despite being specified as 4 x 6.
> A temporary workaround is to not specify any PrintRequestAttributes, downside
> being you lose the option for collation, copies, chromacity, print tray, etc.
> * This bug is NOT reproducible on Windows.
> * This bug is NOT reproducible on Mac when using a non-PDFBOX library to
> print.
> * This bug only occurs when using PDFBOX and MacOS and custom print
> attributes are supplied to the print job.
> {code}
> public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
> //test data
> Paper paper = new Paper();
> paper.setSize(4 * 72, 6 * 72); //4x6in
> paper.setImageableArea(0, 0, 4 * 72, 6 * 72);
> PageFormat pf = new PageFormat();
> pf.setPaper(paper);
> PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(new File(args[0]));
> Book book = new Book();
> book.append(new PDFPrintable(doc, Scaling.SCALE_TO_FIT, false, 0,
> false), pf);
> //No print attributes - Works
> PrinterJob jobPlain = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
> jobPlain.setPageable(book);
> jobPlain.print();
> //With print attributes - Fails, resets paper size to system default
> & attributes are ignored
> PrintRequestAttributeSet attributes = new
> HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
> attributes.add(Chromaticity.MONOCHROME);
> PrinterJob jobAttr = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
> jobAttr.setPageable(book);
> jobAttr.print(attributes);
> }
> {code}
