What you propose requires print data processing, something kdeprint does not. If the paper sizes do not match, it's *normal* that you have clipping. This doesn't happen when you print from a KDE application, because kdeprint is able to feedback the correct paper size to the application before generating the print data. This is not the case for PS generated by 3rd-party applications.

Note however that there exists a filter based on psresize utility that you can apply from kprinter (printer properties dialog -> Filters tab), which will resize the print content, but you have to apply it manually.

Michael.
