Description of problem: In gedit 2.24.2 (Ubuntu 8.10), the margins of a printed document does not seems to be configurable. The left margin is very small - about 1 cm. While such small margins maximizes the printable text on a page, the left margin is too small to punch holes in the sheet using a paper hole punch - holes are punched in the text. See attached file, a print-out of the "Thin clients" Wikipedia page, copied from a Web browser and pasted in gedit for printing. Having configurable margins could enable the user to avoid such problems. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gedit-3.14.3-9.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. print a text file with gedit 2. too small margins on printout 3. Actual results: see attached PDF Expected results: something like 1" margins (or 65 chars / line)
