            Bug ID: 336617
           Summary: Feature request: disable fit-to-page while printing.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.19.1
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: printing
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: energie.mc2 at gmx.de

Newer versions of okular automatically scale down PDFs according to printer
margins. I consider this a bug, since most PDFs are produced for a specific
paper format. Therefore, most of them contain the margins already and I never
printed a PDF that has no margin. As pointed out in
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=332331 the fit-to-page is a feature and I
don't want to argue about it.

I'd like to request an option to turn off the automatic page fit. For example
something similar to acroread, where you have a dropdown menu for the scaling
with "none" and "fit to page". Setting all four margins to 0 manually is not an
option since it takes too long.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any standard PDF (e.g. a latex-output) in Okular
2. Print it
Actual Results:  
The printed document is smaller than expected (scaled down).

Expected Results:  
I expect the printed copy of an document to have the same margins as I see on
the screen.
