           Summary: Printing of PXS very bad font sizes
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.11.2
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: XPS backend
        AssignedTo: okular-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mdhirsch at mail.com


Created an attachment (id=57026)

This is the xps file I couldn't print well

Version:           0.11.2 (using KDE 4.5.5) 
OS:                Linux

Okular does a great job of displaying the attached xps file.  It looks perfect.
 But when I print it it is unreadable.  The problem appears to be that
completely wrong font sizes are used.  Headlines are twice as big as they
should be, so the letter overlap each other, and adjacent text.

This seems to be a big machine dependent.  On one system things seems to be off
by a factor of two or more, but on another one they are off by only 50% or so. 
Both systems are running Kubuntu 10.10 with the latest KDE from the PPA
repository.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I've attached the xps file I was using.  It is 4 pages with some mixture of
text and images.

I discovered this by printing, but then found that the problem was easily seen
in print preview.  When I print preview this on two different Kubuntu systems
the layouts are clearly wrong.  The fonts are two big and don't fit into the
space they are using.

Actual Results:  
The screen view, and print preview are very different.  The layout is
essentially the same, but the font sizing is so wrong that the results are not
usable.

Expected Results:  
The screen view and the print preview should look the same.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.35-25-generic
