I have now made printing documents with pages of different pages finally working in Jaunty's CUPS and in CUPS 1.4. With the next CUPS release in Jaunty you can print such documents out of applications or from the command line.

[Bug 310575] Re: A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper
The CUPS bug was rejected as Ghostscript did not actually produce correct DSC-conforming PostScript in the PDF-to-PostScript conversion by the pdftops (either my script or the filter of CUPS 1.4 which will come with Jaunty's CUPS package). The Ghostscript upstream developers have accepted a last-minute fix for this into Ghostscript 8.64 today (GS is already in code freeze), so Jaunty will ship the tray switching on multiple-page-size documents already working.

[Bug 310575] Re: A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper
ferro, note that the fix for Intrepid in -proposed is only to get Hardy's behavior of scaling down the A3 pages back, not for automatic tray change. Automatic tray change we will get back in Jaunty. I have reported your problem to CUPS upstream: http://www.cups.org/str.php?L3063 Mike Sweet, author of CUPS, has solved it by imposing the page size to the document only if the page size is supplied on the command line. Otherwise the document's page size will be used. I will also check the other filters and make them also behaving this way. This means that then you should be able to print multiple-page size documents with automatic tray change with lpr combined.pdf and scale them to A4 with lpr -o PageSize=A4 combined.pdf -- A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 310575] Re: A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper
ferro, that means that the PostScript which current Ghostscript and current Poppler are producing from PDF input does not trigger paper tray changes in your printer. To investigate how PostScript has to look like so that tray changes will happen (so that one can improve filters in the future) can you please try the following: Make some copies of the printout file which you have attached in the last posting. Have a look at all four page headers, beginning with %%Page and ending with %%EndPageSetup. Now we try two approaches to make the PostScript file switching trays: 1st approach: Remove the very first %%PageBoundingBox: lines directly after %%Page. Do not remove the %%PageBoundingBox: lines after %%BeginPageSetup. 2nd approach: Somewhere between %%BeginPageSetup and %%EndPageSetup setup add the line /PageSize [XXX YYY] /ImagingBBox null setpagedevice replacing XXX and YYY by the two numbers in the beginning of the line which ends with setpagesize. 3rd approach: Do both the 1st and the 2nd approach. Edit always all four page headers as described. Send all the three approaches unfiltered (with the nc ... command line) to the printer. Which of these approaches make the printer switching trays. If you can get hold on a machine with an old CUPS 1.2.x environment where the tray switching still worked, please make a copy of your print queue which prints into a file there, too (see my previous postings, lpadmin -p test ) and post the output PostScript file from there. This is all to allow improvements of the filters in the future. For Intrepid we will make an SRU to at least get back to Hardy's behavior of scaling down the A3 pages to A4. -- A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

1. Version 1.2 supported this, we have always been using this command line printing for these print jobs, it used to work as long as we had debian sarge with a self built vanilla v1.2 on the print server. It makes sense to support paper picking. 2. pdftops filter works partly: paper is picked properly for single print jobs with only one paper format, but a print file with a combination of A4 and A3 is complately printed to A4 paper with scale down. This is at least much better than cropping. Great! Thanks! For my need here right now that functionality would be sufficient, but wouldn't it be good if combined formats are also printed correctly? 3. mentioned restrictions: Does that mean that if i print from an application i cannot choose the paper? That would also mean if i print an A3 document on a printer that is set to A4 as standard, i don't have to pick the paper and it is printed correctly? Our printers here would anyway reject a letter sized print job unless the printer is set to make it fit on a A4 paper, which is what i have set on all printers here. ** Attachment added: pdf with both A3+A4 combined http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21465142/combined.pdf -- A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 310575] Re: A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper
Independent what pdftops filter is used, the tray seems to be generally selected by the size of the first page. This means that the PostScript data stream produced when running the Ghostscript-based pdftops filter does not trigger tray changes when the page size changes. Pages are not scaled to fit into any given format. The Poppler-based pdftops filter scales down all pages, in your last test not to the size given by CUPS as the filter is patched to not pass on the PPD or command line paper size. It seems to scale the pages to the size of the first page. I have also tried to run pdftops -noshrink -nocenter -nocrop combined.pdf Then the output consists of all pages in original size but put onto A4 sheets in the orientation of the original pages.

It still does not choose A3 paper. -- A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 310575] Re: A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper
I am not sure whether CUPS really supports paper size selection by the document. One could try to modify the pdftops and pstopdf filters to not impose the paper size from the PPD to the document Now I think we should at least be on the state that we have the same behavior as in Hardy.

Can you try the attached pdftops filter? I have modified it to keep the document's paper size as long as fitplot is NOT used.

[Bug 310575] Re: A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper
Note: The attachments of the last three postings are probably not perfect. They will probably make a paper size given by the PPD or the command line completely ignored, at least when printing PostScript or PDF files (what usually comes from applications). Especially if your printer has A4 as standard size and you print a PostScript or PDF in Letter format, the printer can reject it. But please test anyway, at least to see whether they lead to the desired behavior. Then we could find a compromise, like imposing paper sizes from the command line but not from the PPD, and anyway, if you print with the fitplot option, the paper sizes get imposed again. -- A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 310575] Re: A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper
I can confirm that if you specify explicitly A3 it prints correctly. But is this the way it should be? If i print to Lenny cups queue or Sarge, i don't have to specify anything and i have mixed format PDFs in a directory and just do a lpr -P xerox1 *.pdf and each document is printed correctly, no matter if A3 or A4. This does not work with 2ubuntu6 version. I strongly disagree that it is a correct and expected print processing that If i print an A3 document it comes out cropped on A4 paper?? It can be better, the information is there, cups has just to use it, it it obviously worked as expected in other/older versions. And i am not talking about printing from GUI applications like evince or acroread, just because you have to click on thousand buttons to get what you want, which makes it error prone. -- A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 310575] Re: A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper
For me your attached files print correctly if 1. You have installed the latest CUPS package (1.3.9-2ubuntu6). Note that 2ubuntu5 is broken. Do not use it. 2. Either the default paper size for your print queue is set to A3 or you select A3 paper size when sending the job. The following test command lines gave always correct results for me (display the PostScript file /tmp/printout after each lpr call): cupsctl LogLevel=debug cupsctl FileDevice=yes lpadmin -p a -E -v /tmp/printout -P /usr/share/ppd/openprinting/HP/HP_LaserJet_5200.ppd.gz -o PageSize=A3 lpr -P a A3landscape.pdf lpr -P a A3portrait.pdf lpadmin -p a -o PageSize=A4 lpr -P a -o PageSize=A3 A3landscape.pdf lpr -P a -o PageSize=A3 A3portrait.pdf If you print out of evince (Document Viewer) you MUST choose the correct paper size (A3 here) under Print Setup before printing. Note also that evince does not remember the paper size which you have selected for your last printout. The problem is evince here, due to not very user-friendly handling of the page size. ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: cups = evince Importance: Undecided = Medium Status: New = Confirmed -- A3 pdf file is cropped and printed on A4 paper https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
