There is another bug: the print out has an offset in the range of the upper left corner of the printable area. The slightly differing values for the paper size may come from internal recalculations (pixel-mm-inches). But the margins will be changed in Options - Current Drawing Preferences - Paper. It seems it doesn't make any difference in the print out whether you accept the change or not. "margins: 0.166535, 0.166535, 0.166535, 0.166535" is probably taken from the printer's unprintable area, communicated from Windows and the printer driver. It probably has to do with the introduction of multi-page printing, coupled with margins. I have this issue too, I was not aware of it as I hardly actually print to paper from LibreCAD. You are right, it has nothing to do with a bad printer driver. In this case I have to fiddle with it or it runs off sheet. With respect to scale, normally, I'd expect that if I define a certain page size and ask to print the drawing the scale would automatically adjust to place the drawing on the paper. Note that the Drawing Settings and the Printer Settings are identical. Besides, if I ask Librecad to apply changes to the current drawing and immediately print again I get this message. That is not an option for any print driver I'm aware of. the Windows print to PDF driver) I get exactly the same results. When I print to Microsoft Print to PDF (i.e. I use the same printer/driver for all sorts of applications including Kicad and other CAD programs and it works fine. I have only one printer set up for 8.5x11. Setting the page size to Custom 11 x 8.5 gives exactly the same result. It seems weird to have such an issue with such a basic function. I don't understand why it insists on changing things. Moreover, if I don't manually force the scale to 1:120 (in my case) I lose the right hand side of the drawing. If I set the drawing options to 11 x 8.5 and margins 0,0,0,0 it still says This error comes up regardless of what I answer. Whenever I print I get a message paper size and/or margins have been changed Do you wish to apply changes to the current drawing. Hello and thanks in advance for the help.
