Hi,
I'm using okular 0.24.2 and have a problem with printing a no regular sized pdf page (not a A4 page). If I want to print a page, which doesn't have the regular (A4) size, how can I tell Okular to scale the page, so that it fits the given size (e.g. A4). I'm searching something like in the printer dialogue of showFoto (last tab). Thanks! btw: Is there no way to attach a screenshot in a message in this forum ? |

you will need to do this with the command line, possibly the convert command (Google'ing will probably show other options)

Thanks for your hint.
Using the convert command is possible, but a kind of complicate... I found https://docupub.com/pdfresize/ an online converter. But in this case, you give up your privacy. Scaling a pdf for printing should be a basic feature of a pdf viewer like okular(shouldn't it). It would be great, if a gifted programmer could spend some time to implement this feature. |

Finally, I found something with using ghostscript:
gs \ -o output.pdf \ -sDEVICE=pdfwrite \ -sPAPERSIZE=a4 \ -dFIXEDMEDIA \ -dPDFFitPage \ -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 \ input.pdf Greetings! |

another alternative would be a service menu, there is a set but that functionality doesn't seem to be there
