Well, gnome bug 349102 gave me the solution, to set up first the page size from Page setup.

Hello, I have 2.28.1-0ubuntu1.2 and still experience the same. I've tried the proposed solutions, by adding a4 to /etc/papersize and the LC_PAPER=a4 or LC_PAPER=en_GB.UTF-8, but the paper size still says US Letter in evince. -- Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 224882] Re: Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way
Having lost good few hours searching where this setting could be, I am +1 to resolve this. Minor, but ... somewhat important note. If you grep /etc/ for 'a4|letter', you will find /etc/papersize. No way you can guess that LANG=en_US.UTF-8 has anything with that At the very least (or until it is patched), my suggestion: in the default config, put on the top of the /etc/papersize the note like: # Note that some applications use LANG/LC_PAPER settings instead of this configuration. # To complete the paper size configuration, set in your /etc/environment (or .bashrc) # LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8 for letter # LC_PAPER=en_GB.UTF-8 for A4 -- Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 224882] Re: Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way
I consider the evince behaviour as a pesky bug. I would like to print per default on an A4 printer using American English set as default language. I do usually work in a NIS and BSD automounter network and do not want to mess up my environment with the workaround proposed. The setup must be local to the machine and not to the user. -- Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I agree, but in the meantime you can try the suggestion form Pascal De Vuyst in this thread: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+question/6846 it does the trick, but it is clumsy and irritating. -- Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 224882] Re: Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way
Could I ask that this be moved up in priority? Every time I open an A4 sized document in evince and try and print it, it sends it as letter, which freezes our printer until someone notices and hits the reset button. I want my locale to be en_US as I want American English for most things, but I am in Japan.

It's not even a printer specific setting, it's a print job specific setting. There might be a default per printer, but I would like to change it for a print job when I feed paper manually to print on envelopes or index cards for example. -- Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for your suggestion.

[Bug 224882] Re: Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way
Well I don't know what you consider a bug, it just seems to me that paper size is a printer specific and not country specific setting. At the office where I work the printer would stall every time it got a job with the wrong paper type. For the non-savvy linux user messing around in .profile is a no go and for people traveling between countries it's even worse. If not a bug then at least it should be on the wish list. -- Evince chooses default paper size the wrong way https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
