I also have this problem. We work with small sized magazines and want to print the pages on a larger size for review. I can't find a way to have Scribus generating the postscript with an appropriate page size. Since it allways uses the printer page size (A4), and the document page is small, we get a huge white area on the postscript output, so we can't rescale the actual content (with kprinter or lpr -o fitplot) on an A4. Any ideas? Thanks Gustavo > -- > Craig Ringer -- Angulo S?lido - Tecnologias de Informa??o http://angulosolido.pt
