            Bug ID: 129214
           Summary: Cannot print because of paper size conflicts
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Printing and PDF export
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: retail at prichy.net

Description:
Printing pages of non-standard sizes is impossible due to the print dialogue.
The print dialogue only allows a few standard sizes to be specified (A4, Letter
etc) despite virtually any page size being specified when creating docs. The
printer errors if the paper being used does not match that specified by
LibreOffice. Remove the unnecessary page size in the print dialogue in order to
print the native sizes in the document.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a document of non-standard size
2.Ctrl-P to invoke print dialogue
3.Cannot enter a custom size or even some standard sizes (A6 for instance)
4.Print anyway

Actual Results:
The printer errors because the loaded paper that matches the document does not
match what the print dialogue tells it

Expected Results:
Print the document according to the page size in the document


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
The print dialogue should not contain the paper size - that's embedded in the
document - possibly different for each page. Please don't blame this on the
print driver; I know the theory is that all sizes available should be exported
by the print driver - but that's simply not necessary and other software
(AbiWord) simply works (the print dialogue does not force a page size).
