Can't "shrink to fit" PDF doc
I'm trying to print out a PDF document that is slightly larger than the printable area allowed by my printer. I selected “Shrink (print the whole page)” but the bottom of the document keeps getting chopped off every time I try to print. The margins are set up correctly. This happens in both KPDF and KGhostView. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I'm using openSUSE 11.0, KDE 3.5.9. Printer is an Epson Stylus C44UX.
Thanks!

Why don't you CTRL + A > CTRL + C, CTRL + V in OpenOffice and then do a normal print? this would bring all stuff in margins

Thanks for the quick reply! I found that cutting and pasting as text looses the formatting of the original document but copying as an image worked. It is a bit impractical for a document with many pages though. I have just installed Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1 so hopefully I'll have better luck with that!

Acrobat Reader did the trick, I selected "Shrink to Printable Area" and it printed the whole document out no problem!
