Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2844:
-----------------------------------------

My comment about a poor user experience wasn't about PDFPrinter, it was about 
the applications. I don't mind how it is now, but I don't use it daily. My wish 
is that it be easy to use and not force people ask questions. At most, they 
should be pointed to our own applications. And yes, there should be a silent 
print and a non silent print possibility out-of-the-box. And we can't expect 
people to implement something like the logic in PDFPrintable themselves.

> 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}
