I have finally managed installing a recent version of okular (1.7.2). The
operation of the scaling menu is a bit unclear to me, though.

1. It is presented as a PDF option, but okular supports many more formats. For
instance, the option is absent for tiff, which is a nice multipage format for
things like BW document scans with Group4 compression (even if those can
certainly be embedded in PDF). Similarly, the option is absent for PNG, etc.

2. The option is grayed out unless I also activate "force rasterization" that
makes each page take ages for printing.

3. The option seems to be unusable together with the print preview (e.g., it is
impossible to use the option and preview the results /before/ printing).

Would it be possible to reconsider the way in which this otherwise useful
option is proposed to the user?
