Re: Okular defaults to A4 paper for printing

Sorry, muzicman0, I don't know why it doesn't work for you - I would only repeat myself.

@ barryg

In Okular I could choose how many pages I wanted to print on an A4 and a few others, incl. US letter (if I had the paper ).

Yeah i can print out numeous pages in A4, i can select many different paper sizes as well, but it will still only printout at the default A4. Thanks for the replies anyway.

Re: Okular defaults to A4 paper for printing

Okay, I've had OpenOffice default to letter all the time - very annoying.

Some googling and reading pointed me towards the file /etc/papersize

Mine said "letter" - a simple one liner which screwed up my whole system. I changed it to "A4" and haven't encountered any other printing problems as yet.

What does yours say?

I will check when I get home tonight...but...my open office works fine, and as expected...is only in Okular...but there is hope!
