Even then I wouldn't mess with /usr/share/*/*.css, but rather either I would
this file to /etc/skel (for new users -- they can modify it later), or if
you need centralized stylesheet, then I would put stylesheet file somewhere
in /etc (/etc/kde3/local? or maybe /usr/local/share/something
or /usr/local/kde???) and then run (as root):
for user in /home/*; do
echo '@import {/etc/kde3/konqueror/konqueror.css}' \
$user/.kde/konqueror.css
sed -e s/UserStyleSheet=.*$/UserStyleSheet=\$user/.kde/konqueror.css' \
$user/.kde/share/config/konquerorrc
chown echo ${user:6} $user/.kde/share/config/konquerorrc \
$user/.kde/konqueror.css
done
(or maybe put the user's CSS file into ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror, it
doesn't matter, but it seems cleaner). Be aware, that this is totally
untested, and probably will screw up all configurations for all users.

Cousin Matjec
The only thing I can think of that was preventing me
from doing this was *me* being *too dumb*
to go ahead and stick it in there
I added the following line
@media print { body { font-size : x-large ; } }
To the bottom of the file
/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/common/kde-default.css
Now all is well
Successfully printed a man:xyzzy page from Konquer
with fonts printed large enough to easily read
Thanks very much for the suggestion and for your persistence
in pushing me in the right direction

Curt
I did open the .pdf file in Konqueror
and print from it
You have it right for me
o konq print pdf .. { ok }
o konq print man:xyzzy { small fonts }
o konq print html . { small fonts }
However, Cousin Leo has posted now
that the pdf also is printing small fonts
on his system
I think what Leo was talking about was opening the web page in Konqueror (the
same one that gives small fonts when you print to paper), selecting Print...
from the File menu, and then choosing Print to File (PDF) as the printer to
use. Then see if the resulting pdf has small fonts in it.

I've encountered this exact problem just today
using Debiand Sarge with KDE 3.3.2
The same
Adding the following CSS code in the head section
to a few pages that I have tested has seemed to work
style type=text/css
@media print { body { font-size : x-large ; } }
/style
where exactly?
However, when I first noticed the problem I was attempting
to print a few man pages from Konqueror by using
man:xyzzy in the Konqueror address bar
Ok, it's a great feature. Works fine here.
A few attempts to try the above fix with the temporary html file
that is generated in this case did not work for me as the edited
source code for the temp file is lost when the page is refreshed
Any clues would be appreciated
The big question that I have found is that i a problem in konqueror or a no
feature. Konqueror calculate the fontsize of the print looking the size of
its windows. You have different print-size in function of the size of the
windows where konqueror is executing. Please, test it.
So, or you use a homemade css style selected in the config section, or wait
till a new version of konqueror with an option about the print font size. The
kde team know that this is a problem
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75657#c6
However, I reopen the bug.

You should be able to place those lines in the HTML document
between the tags head . /head
If you already have other
style /style or
link rel=stylesheet href=/xPath/yFile.css type=text/css
Then, make sure the lines you add *follow*
any previously existing ones
That is, the lines you add should be the *last* ones

Hi Stanley,
I suspect that. But I don't think that it's a good idea to download every
page that I want to print, modify it and then print :-)

Control Panel/Internet Network/Web browser/Stylesheets (or something like
that, I have localized KDE) and there you can specify your own CSS file
which is used by knoqueror per default. I have there for example:
a[rel~=nofollow] {
text-decoration: line-through ! important;
border-bottom: dotted thin gray ! important;
color: gray ! important
}
(read what '! important' means, for example on
