[Bug 921073] Re: Scale-to-fit the generated page onto the printer's page size
larsu, I tested now whether your fix also works for paper sizes which are wider than high and selected A5 landscape-oriented (It fits into A4 and therefore can easily be tested on most inkjet printers). I printed on the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A (with the hpcups driver, any inkjet with custom paper size support should work) using the command: lpr -P OJP8500 -o PageSize=Custom.595x421pt /usr/share/cups/data/testprint and got the attached result. larsu, awesome. Your bannertopdf is perfect now! Paul, you could use this as an example when presenting the new test page. ** Attachment added: "Test page on A5 paper inserted long-edge first (scanned)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/921073/+attachment/2797929/+files/a5-landscape-testpage-lp921073.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921073 Title: Scale-to-fit the generated page onto the printer's page size To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bannertopdf/+bug/921073/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 921073] Re: Scale-to-fit the generated page onto the printer's page size
> The resulting page has to large spaces at the top This happens, because bannertopdf preserves aspect ratio of the page when scaling it. It's unfortunate that the margins get relatively large on media that have vastly different aspect ratios (such as photos), but I think it's better than stretching the page. > and between the color wheels and the printer property text Fixed in r21 > the lower border of the frame is not drawn I can't reproduce that, as I don't have the printer here. I have offset the rect by 1pt (as is done by bannertops).

[Bug 921073] Re: Scale-to-fit the generated page onto the printer's page size
I have tested now and principally it works, especially for A4/Letter. There is still a problem with page sizes which are well differnt to A4/Letter. On the HP OfficeJet Pro B8500A (hpcups driver) I have printed the test page on "Photo 4x6" paper size. The resulting page has to large spaces at the top and between the color wheels and the printer property text. The text touches the lower border of the printable area and the lower border of the frame is not drawn. Scanned page attached. ** Attachment added: "Scanned test page on 4x6 photo paper" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bannertopdf/+bug/921073/+attachment/2795492/+files/photo-4x6-testpage-lp921073.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921073 Title: Scale-to-fit the generated page onto the printer's page size To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bannertopdf/+bug/921073/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
