Please add a % (percent) scale factor when printing, e.g. an 80% size. This
would easily allow printing wide text on one sheet of page.
Although I mostly work in narrower text, there are times I want to create and
print a wider table or the like.
As it is there is no way to print wide text in Linux that I have found
(although I will next try LibreOffice, but it deals with tabs very differently
and is not really a text editor).
Landscape mode helps, but is not enough for some things.
Also making the font smaller I think is a poor choice of how to go about this.
There must be a reasonably simple way to simply adjust the scaling that the
printer output gets.
Note that there is a % factor in the print preview, but this is only to adjust
what is displayed on the screen in preview. I think this same dialog would be
a good place to also be able to adjust the scale of the output onto the page.
Thanks ever so much!!

(NOTE: this bug tracker needs to be updated with newer versions added to the
Version pull down box.)
(Also I think this bug tracker needs to have 'printing' as an available
Component in the Component pull down.)
