The problem is the creation of the pdf, Kio4 prints the indicated layout in pdf but each device has different resolutions and different settings. I need a fixed A4 print.
sorry I can't explain myself well.
The problem depends on the device on which I start the print. For example, if I had a device with a wider screen (tablet for example), printing would be good because Kio4 prints the data of the displayed layout.
The KIO4_PDF extension is not printing anything, it creates a pdf of the layout and dimensions you provide. Acrobat is doing the printing and setting the print size of the pdf provided.
I do not have Acrobat installed, so cannot do any testing for you.
For what it is worth A4 dimensions are of the ratio 1:0.7070 so your should be outputting your pdf to 2600:1840 to provide an A4 size for printing.
Ok, that's right.
But the Kio4 print the layout. If the table extends beyond the phone screen, it will not print.
I have tried increasing the witdh with no results.
That is something different....

Sorry I couldn't make myself understood.
Do you have any ideas to help me?
Have you found the "shrink to fit" setting for TableView ?
And this is the same when you actually print it out ? Different output size depending on device used ? Or are you just talking about the pdf display on screen?
The print size is relative to the screen size.
For example if the screen were bigger, printing would be fine.
hmmm,
Try increasing the output size in KIO4_PDF to 5200 : 3680
what happens then ?
Any idea to help me?
Try:
Delete Acrobat reader
This should make the activityStarter call Google Chrome / PDF viewer
File path might be an issue (could require content uri)
Try printing from there...

It is a test that I had already done, nothing changes.
Is there any way to "trick" into setting a false screen size?
Do you have to print to paper?
Do you have to print out to paper from the phone/device?
Could you simply send the file by email or up to google drive for printing with a computer ?
I am not able to test because my printer is to old to connect up via wifi / with android.
The problem is not the printer used or the application to open the pdf. The problem is the screen size of the device. Kio4 prints as displayed in the device screen size.
