Thanks for the reply and sorry if my previous comment caused confusion.
The actual cause why the wrong paper size is selected by default (and not the
default paper size configured by the user) is a problem of the underlying Qt
library used by KDE applications, not of KDE or the applications (like KMail or
Okular) themselves.

The problem has been fixed for the current development version of Qt, s. this
change: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/213677/

Users will profit from this once their distribution ships the (upcoming) Qt
version 5.11 or their Linux distribution backports the corresponding change to
the Qt version they provide.

As far as the preselected value for duplex is concerned, there is a separate
bug report for this, bug 333844. While this is currently filed against Okular,
it is also an issue in Qt and I am very confident that this is going to be
fixed in Qt very soon as well.

Since the issue is not in KDE itself (and has already been fixed upstream), I
am closing this bug report.

Please let me know in case there are any further questions.
