           Summary: Printing files processed by pdfcrop causes the margins
                    to reappear on the printout.
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.11.2
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: PDF backend
        AssignedTo: okular-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: b.weggenmann+kde at gmail.com


Version:           0.11.2 (using KDE 4.5.2) 
OS:                Linux

To print pdf documents I frequently use pdfcrop to remove the white margins.
Okular correctly displays the cropped files on screen, however, when printing,
the margins magically are back on the printout, even when setting the print
margins to 0 in the Properties dialog.
The "Trim margins" option of Okular works on screen, but although it does have
the expected effect on the "Print preview", it has no effect on the printout
and still "prints" the white margins (whether I open the original or the
pdfcropped document).

The described problem occurs when printing to my actual printer (a Canon Pixma
iP4000) as well as when printing to a pdf file. The new pdf file will again
have plenty of white space around it (The old Fermat had the opposite problem -
he didn't have enough margin to prove his last theorem ;)

Printing of pdfcropped files works perfectly with all versions of acroread I
have tested so far.

Reproducible: Didn't try




Further relevant packages I'm using:
cups 1.44-r2
gutenprint 5.2.5-r1
ghostscript 8.71-r1
