This has me puzzled. I have /etc/papersize set to letter yet gedit
still spits out a call to print to A4. Which causes my printer to
puke.
WTF?!?!?
So I look in ~/.gnome2 and poke in the gedit files. All the ones that
_have_ a paper size are set to letter.
There is no config in setting in gedit that adjust the papersize. It's
handled by the gnome printing engine.
which reads the system variable $PAPERSIZE which is set by the
/etc/papersize file!!!
AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!!
So did some European coder hardcode A4 as a default paper size?
