[tde-users] Printing font sizes

Since starting my damn-the-torpedoes-full-speed-ahead journey the past few weeks to solely use TDE, I found the need today to print a simple one-page text file. Since using KDE Kate for the past some years I had to always temporarily change the font size from old eyes on-screen 20 point to 12 point for printing, then restore the font size for old eyes on-screen viewing. A nuisance to some degree. For my current print task I began to do likewise with TDE Kate. I ran into some nuisance issues. There is no Print Preview menu option like in KDE Kate. I looked in the TDE Katepart toolbar config dialog. There is an option to add a Print button to the toolbar but not for Print Preview. Instead there is a Preview check box in the Print dialog. Curiouser and curiouser. The Print Preview dialog opened to an annoying half screen window. I want to preview the entire document, not the upper one-third. A one-click solution using the window sizing widgets to change the window to full screen, but not permanent. I ended up creating a special window rule to open the Print Preview dialog full screen. Search as I might, configuring the Print Preview window to default to full screen without the rule escapes me. Okay, I found a solution, but there must be a way to do this without a rule, right? I proceeded to exercise my cursing skills because despite having changed my old eyes on-screen font size to 12 point, the Print Preview kept showing the font size as my original 20 point selection for on-screen, forcing the short document into two pages. Then the cobwebs flushed. I remembered TDE Kate has different font schemas, including one for printing. Ah yes, now I remember. I might have changed the old eyes on-screen font size, but the Print schema remained the same 20 points. I modified the Print schema to 12 point and the Print Preview looked great. A one page document. Then I restored the old eyes on-screen font size to 20 point. That got me searching the web for why KDE Kate does not do this. Same roots and heritage, right? I don't know. A rabbit hole. Looks like the font schema feature was removed or moved somewhere that only geeks would know where to look. Or I am blind and stupid. In the end I thought, yes, a fine feature to have different font schemas. Screens and printers are different. Nice to know that within TDE Kate I do not have to temporarily modify the old eyes on-screen font size when printing. Convenient. And unlike KDE Kate, TDE Kate launches almost instantaneously. Chalk up a few points for TDE. Rub my belly and watch my leg jiggle.
