https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408272 Drew changed: What|Removed |Added CC||dk...@yahoo.com --- Comment #11 from Drew --- I would like to underline m.eik michalke 2021-04-13 11:36:35 UTC 's comment. It is REALLY annoying not to be able to adjust the default settings, and sometimes I found it hard to get correct p[rint whatever. Also, why does the "do not scale" option always turn on the rasterization "option"? I use TeX to generate pdf pages and they always have correct margins already set, so okular print menu is not friendly. I use evince just to print, but prefer okular for edit/display purposes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

It also applies to a few other options in the print > dialog, e.g., duplex printing. If so, another question is whether to have that for the current session and document only. E.g. I don't like Evince's behaviour of preselecting all print options from the last printout, regardless of the document (so that e.g. if you decide to once print multiple pages per sheet, you'll have it next time as well if you open a completely different document). An alternative might be to add a setting for the default scaling option in Okular's settings. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408272 --- Comment #4 from Nate Graham --- Again I think it's important to avoid destructiveness in the default options. Rather than arguing over what a better default would be, perhaps we should explore alternatives that would bypass the issue entirely: - Make Okular smarter about choosing a default based on whether or not the document appears to already have built-in margins - Make the scaling combobox more visible and prominent so it's easier to notice and change - Make Okular remember the last scaling setting setting rather than always resetting to the default value - etc. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408272 --- Comment #3 from Matthew Trescott --- Okay, but I think sacrificing accuracy for the sake of a few people with unusual documents is not really reasonable. Someone who needs full-bleed printing will probably be going to a professional print shop anyway. Also, if you're a student, the extra margins could make it look like you're trying to make your paper longer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408272 Nate Graham changed: What|Removed |Added CC||n...@kde.org --- Comment #2 from Nate Graham --- > most PDF documents have margins built-in You may be right, but is there a way of verifying or proving this? I think it depends quite heavily on what type of document one typically encounters. Also keep in mind that it's important for default options be as non-destructive as possible. When default "fit to printable area" and you use it on a document with built-in margins, the worst thing that happens is that the printed document's margins are too big. But if the default is "Fit to full page" and you don't remember to change it for a document without built-in margins, then the edges get cut off and the printout is ruined. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
