Summary0001165: Issue with print margins
DescriptionHello,

In the stable version, 3.8, when I select "Print" using the printer installed on my system I get the option to adjust print margins in mm. However, if I select "Print as Bmp" the option to adjust print margins is no longer available.

In earlier development versions, the option to adjust the print margins when printing as Bmp was available. Can you please add it back in the stable version?
Steps To ReproduceSelect print > print as bmp
Additional InformationThis was removed voluntarily by revision 1682 in march 2011 because print margin make no sens for a bitmap file.

Can you briefly explain what is the purpose for this margin for you?

TagsNo tags attached.

I just thought this was a nice, useful feature. When I print CdC charts, I first print them as bmp and only then print on paper, using Irfanview. This is because I have an older printer, much more easily for me to print an image file.

Moreover, I think that many users, even with the latest printers, prefer to first print a bmp image and only then print it on paper, using their favorite image editing software... In my case, when I print from CdC the contrast of the print is rather poor (the printer has minor problems).

When I print a bmp image, I can then enhance contrast and sharpen the image with just a few clicks. Quality is far superior...
