Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2844:
-----------------------------------------
I'd like to provide a good default user experience, and at the same time, have
a source code that can be used as an example on how to make changes. So I'd
like to change the code in the PrintPDF and PDFReader applications as you
described, or alternatively change it to set margins to a small value (e.g. 1/5
of an inch ~= 5mm) and shrink if needed. WDYT?

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Rendering
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Tilman Hausherr

> Printing the attached file from PDFReader brings larger margins than
> expected, and larger than with Adobe Reader. Doing the same with 1.8 has the
> expected margins (but bad fonts).
> From Александр Свиридов / Alex Sviridov in the mailing list:
> {quote}
> I printed this pdf file with Adobe Reader in mode 100%. And as expected left
> and right margins are about 2cm. In comparison when I print using pdfbox left
> margin is 4.5cm, right about 3.5cm.
> The code I use :
> {code}
> PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
> Paper paper=new Paper();
> paper.setSize(72d*8.267d, 72d*11.692);
> PDFPrinter pDFPrinter=new PDFPrinter(document,Scaling.SCALE_TO_FIT,
> Orientation.PORTRAIT,paper);
> pDFPrinter.silentPrint(job);
> {code}
