Hijacking a thread here, but it sure needs help.  When okular is set to 
auto-scale, it sends to a US letter printer about 9" wide, so the right 
hand inch is missing. Whomever decided it should be FF's default pdf reader 
needs a very close examination of their thinker.  Adobe reader Just 
Works(TM).
