Hmmm, I never saw Okular scaling a PDF print here so far. Also I do not 
see any settings related to scaling. Neither in Okular´s print dialog nor 
in the driver related settings. I am using a HP OfficeJet 5610 with hplip.

So what ever lets PDF be scaled on your setup, it might not be Okular. Or 
at least Okular doesn´t scale by default everywhere. Here it almost 
certainly doesn´t.

I'm printing on a Lexmark C544 using the Lexmark-provided PPD. Through 
CUPS, of course.

The KDE print dialog does not contain anything related to scaling. The 
printer properties accessible through this dialog just mirror the 
settings contained in the PPD and there isn't anything related to 
scaling either.

Another thing I forgot to mention: when I choose "Print to File (PDF)", 
i.e., the PDF-printing provided by KDE, not CUPS, there is no scaling. 
(CUPS PDF-printing just gives a blank page.)

I was prepared to put the blame on the PPD or the printer. However, 
Adobe Reader has no such problems when printing to the same printer and, 
presumably, using the same PPD.

At this point, Debian Qt/KDE team has no plans to backport neither this nor 
any later version.
