semola,

You might be having this problem due to your locale not using A4 but you
personally are. en_US.UTF-8 is setup for letter by default. I am not
certain whether the various apps use /etc/papersize or the locale
information. But there is definitely a LC_PAPER to set the default
papertype for a locale.

~$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
