wrong unit translations in print dialog

Bug Description

When using locale es_AR (Spanish, Argentina), the galeon print dialog labels the margin boxes with "Márgenes (milímetros)" (which means "margins in millimeters"). However, the numbers written there are actually interpreted as centimeters by galeon.

This leads to some strange behavior, for example when setting a reasonable margin of 20mm, actually a 20cm margin is set, so there is no printing area and the printout is completely blank.

Thanks for the report.

Has this always been a problem with galeon, or just a recent version? Which version are you running?

Oh, sorry, forgot that detail. It is the latest galeon package in breezy, 1.3.21-6ubuntu3.

I am not sure if the problem is new. I have been using galeon for several years, but almost never printed.

Can anyone else confirm this? I can't get Galeon installed because of some stupid Java plugin problem. :)

Thanks for your comment. Ubuntu gets its translations from
http://launchpad.net/rosetta. This is the place where translation teams actively
work on making Ubuntu more useful in their language. If you want to change a
certain text, Rosetta is the right place for it.
