Opening in Firefox was the instruction. Chromium is incapable of displaying 
absolute sizes accurately unless the display by chance happens to be actually 
96 DPI. Measuring 20mm seems to indicate your display is actually 122 DPI, 
likely an 18" 1920x1080 TV screen connected to or used by your Dell Latitude.

33mm is because your 122 DPI display is set to use 144 DPI.

Something would be if Xft.dpi had existed in your environment.

Only 4 lines there matter for this thread's purposes, dimensions 
(1920x1080/341mmx191mm),  resolution (143x144), vendor release number 
(10.800.000) & version number (11).

Is there still a KDE problem? If so, exactly what?
