--- Comment #14 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko at gmail.com> ---
What we have is 
* Reduce/enlarge printout
  + 100% means original = default
  + > or < 100% is what the label states
* Fit to width/height
  + width or height set to a high number fits the content accordingly
  + width or height to a reasonable number defines precisely the export
* Fit to a number of pages
  + takes the height into account for the number of pages

Thinking about fit to n pages makes me wonder if it's possible to have a
certain width _and_ height at the same time. And if these options are
exclusively we could have the scaling options like this

( ) Don't scale
(o) Fit width to 1/n pages
( ) Fit height to 1/n pages
( ) Scale proportionally to 100/n %

The 'do not scale' convenience option is for users who don't want to meditate
about what happens in case of 100%.
Numerical stepper allow to set a maximum. Showing the number of pages in
respect to the alternative option as default could be helpful.

In a second thought the exclusive nature of width/height is not so clear
anymore. But I'd still make the choice as simple as possible. Users who want to
scale in both dimensions have the proportional option.
