Can't find an about:config for Firefox that works for me.
That suggestion of aoubt:config prompted me to look, there are several print.print_paper_* settings, have you tried those? This post indicates that print.print_paper_name may be the way... https://superuser.com/questions/184476/how-to-set-default-page-setup-%e2%86%92page-size-as-a4-in-firefox#309175 ... but it doesn't work for me in FF 58.0.2 I see the following: print.print_paper_data integer 0 print.print_paper_height string 11.69 print.print_paper_name string iso_a4 print.print_paper_size integer 0 print.print_paper_size_unit integer 0 print.print_paper_width stirng 8.27 I have tried resetting to default, tried "letter" and "na_letter" as the print_paper_name, but the print dialog always defaults to A4 regardless. > Keep telling myself to look for a change to compile in, but shudder to > think of building Firefox. Agreed. I tried once and after quite some time if failed for lack of resources (don't remember exactly what, now). Allan
