Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3453:
-----------------------------------------
[~tresf] I'd suggest you build from source and then do some modifications in
PDFPrintable (i.e. replace the PDFBox rendering with simple g2d calls) until
the problem disappears, this way you'll find what breaks it. But be aware that
Oracle isn't fixing bugs very fast.
> PDFPrintable plus PrintRequestAttributeSet breaks page size
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-3453
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3453
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Environment: Java 8 u77, MacOS 10.11
> Reporter: Tres Finocchiaro
> Priority: Critical
>
> On MacOS, when supplying custom attributes to the print interface, it has the
> reverse effect and ignores the attributes specified, including the page size.
> In the below example, the page size will default to US Letter (8.5 x 11)
> despite being specified as 4 x 6.
> A temporary workaround is to not specify any PrintRequestAttributes, downside
> being you lose the option for collation, copies, chromacity, print tray, etc.
> * This bug is NOT reproducible on Windows.
> * This bug is NOT reproducible on Mac when using a non-PDFBOX library to
> print.
> * This bug only occurs when using PDFBOX and MacOS and custom print
> attributes are supplied to the print job.
> {code}
> public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
> //test data
> Paper paper = new Paper();
> paper.setSize(4 * 72, 6 * 72); //4x6in
> paper.setImageableArea(0, 0, 4 * 72, 6 * 72);
> PageFormat pf = new PageFormat();
> pf.setPaper(paper);
> PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(new File(args[0]));
> Book book = new Book();
> book.append(new PDFPrintable(doc, Scaling.SCALE_TO_FIT, false, 0,
> false), pf);
> //No print attributes - Works
> PrinterJob jobPlain = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
> jobPlain.setPageable(book);
> jobPlain.print();
> //With print attributes - Fails, resets paper size to system default
> & attributes are ignored
> PrintRequestAttributeSet attributes = new
> HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
> attributes.add(Chromaticity.MONOCHROME);
> PrinterJob jobAttr = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
> jobAttr.setPageable(book);
> jobAttr.print(attributes);
> }
> {code}
