Hello,

Have you found a solution to this issue? I get the same kind of error. When I print in A4 on Windows, it fits perfectly, while on linux, it seems like everything is zoomed in

Thanks,
Fabien

It's the other way round, on Linux it prints at 75 dpi (native for WebKit) while on Windows it uses the desktop's DPI (which is normally 96 dpi). You can use --zoom 0.78125 (75/96) to get the same effect on Linux.
