Yes, it appears to be identical to the Print icon. >From the usability perspective, I've never really understood why 'Page Setup' exists. Why aren't all the printing-related settings in the Print dialog (for Abiword, at least some are duplicated there)? Or if a word processor needs more control of formatting than the print dialog has, wouldn't those go into a Format - Page or the like. After writing that, I note that Abiword's 'File - Page Setup' is in fact the same dialog that you get from 'Format - Document'. OpenOffice has no Page Setup. Gedit has one, and it looks to me like things I would expect to be in Preferences. Just my two cents.
