Since 0.76: Printing custom sizes is broken
Posted: Fri Oct 30, 2015 1:00 am
Hi all,
since upgrading to 0.76 today, printing customized paper sizes (set up via Devices and Printers -> Print Server Properties) does no longer work properly. While in Page Setup the correct paper size is shown, it won't be used afterwards, i.e. the last standard size is used for preview. When printing, the customized size IS used, however with the last standard size in mind, e.g. only the upper level will be in the printout, since the aligning followed the standard size.
Reproduction:
1. Setup custom paper size via Devices and Printers -> Print Server Properties
2. Open something to print and select print.
3. Select Page setup...
4. Change size from (here: A4) to custom size (e.g. 10x10, as set up in step 1.)
5. Preview in Page Setup will show the new layout.
6. Back in the print dialog, the new paper size will NOT be shown, instead it is still the one selected before (here: A4).
7. Printing with a PDF printer will result in a custom sized PDF, but it will be most likely be massively cropped.
Windows 8.1 Pro, 64 bit / qvPDF
I never experienced this problem with the previous version(s?). Only custom paper sizes seem to be affected.
[EDIT]
Reverting back to 0.75 did not solve the problem. The only thing different today is an Adobe Acrobat Reader DC update that installed today automatically. Yesterday it worked fine.
[UPDATE]
Reverting back to 0.72 DID solve the problem. I assume that's where I wanted to revert back to in the first place.
