gEDA-bug: [Bug 703879] Re: add a way to configure the margin of printing

[Peter TB Brett <703879@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

At the moment, the margin is set by a hard-coded magic number -- there
is no config variable or clever hardware-margins code.

What I'm saying is that, ideally, by default the margin should be set by
talking to a printer, i.e. you shouldn't *need* to fiddle with the
config to get a margin appropriate to your configuration. Of course, in
some cases, such as when your printer is lying about its margins, you
may need to override that (although IMHO you should fix the printer
:-P).

Title:
  add a way to configure the margin of printing

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently, there is no user accessible way to set the margin of "print
  extents with margins".

  Proposal: Make this quantity configurable. It should be set in a
  gschemrc and the print dialog should provide a way to override.
