In the old days when I was preparing docs in LaTeX (dvi to ps to pdf, without LyX), I remember having issues with the page size occasionaly, but not similar to the problem you are experiencing. This still seems to me a problem with the printer drivers-or PDF viewer, or I would say this is highest probability. Baris -- ↓↓ Please bottom-post. Start your reply here:
Use LARGE font size for entire document
I tried placing ERT boxes with \LARGE{ at the beginning of the document
and } at the end of the document but it doesn't seem to affect the compiled
font size. What is the recommended way to have a document with body text
larger than 12 point?

Kornel Hello Kornel, reading your message I shouted "Heureka, that's it!" But when I checked I found that the paper settings were set correctly to A4 in both, the printer and the document settings. So, the search must go on ;-) (if it isn't a bug in classicthesis) Thanks and cheers Michael Berger

Re: page margins settings are correct in PDF on screen but wrong when printed
Hello Baris, thanks for your reply and proposition. Unfortunately I cannot find ways to scale my document. Furthermore, if my document is scaled then the PDF preview should also be scaled. So, my search to get a printout re-flexing the margin settings is still going on. The document margins can be set in in Document Settings > Document Class > Page Margins and the text area can be set in in classicthesis-config-LyX.tex and in classicthesis.sty I tried all these possibilities but always ended up in a correct PDF on screen and a wrong PDF when printed. So far no happy end.

However, the resulting printout looks different: left 31,0 mm right 45,5 mm text width 133,3 mm I tried different types of PDF converters but get the same wrong result. And two entirely different printers produce same wrong printouts. If I remember correctly this did not happen in Mageia 6 using Miede's older version of classicthesis-Lyx-v4.2! Can somebody help explaning/solving this mystery!? Thanks and best Michael Berger Did you check that the PDF viewer does not do any scaling when printing?
