Hi Derek,
A Debian user reports problems converting an A5 size PDF to PostScript.
Firstly, I notice that Xpdf won't accept "-paper A5", saying it's
invalid.
Secondly, our user expects that an A5-size PDF will print to A5-size
paper automatically. My understanding is that Xpdf will always print to
the default or specified paper size, not to something read from the
source PDF. Is this correct?
thanks,
Hamish

X-Spam-Status: No, score=-1.8 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_00,
DATE_IN_FUTURE_03_06 autolearn=ham version=3.0.4
Package: xpdf-common
Version: 3.01-1
Filename: pool/main/x/xpdf/xpdf-common_3.01-1_all.deb
This bug seems similar to bug #295685, wich was sent to cups and
reasigned to xpdf.
Problem: printed A5 page size .pdf file trhu cups produces an A4 page
size with centered A5 pdf in it. cups uses pdftops to convert to .ps and
the same problem appears printing from within xpdf-viewer and manually
converting the .pdf:
homero:~$ pdftops a.pdf a.ps
homero:~$ lp a.ps
This is reproducible in out of the box Debian stable/testing machine with:
xpdf 3.01-1
cups 1.1.23-11
cupsys-driver-gutenprint 4.3.99+cvs20050813-1
Epson c43/c5 printers (sorry, I don't have any other printer)
and the .pdf file attached to this report, or the ones downloaded from:
http://unix12.fzu.cz/ep2ds14/original/downlfr.html
If the .pdf is converted using pdf2ps then the printed page is ok, so I
think this is not cups related.
