Bug Description
When printing, evince by default automatically chooses a paper size unrelated to the setting in the System>
According to this thread:
https:/
"This is because evince uses the value of the LC_PAPER locale setting, for en_US.UTF-8 this defaults to letter." -- Pascal De Vuyst
While this is a good initial guess, it is a poor method in an environment with mixed printers or for travelers that change location often.
