Comment 140 for bug 10910

Hi,

I have the same bug in Firefox 7.0.1 on a french installation of Kubuntu 11.10.
The standard paper format in France is A4.

I always use the last stable version of Firefox distributed by Canonical.
I print each month a PDF receipt of the payment of my rent (I pay at the end of the month).
I never cared about setting the paper format.

So it is interesting to see what happened in the last years, the format of my receipts has been continuously changing over the time:
August 2008 to February 2009: A4 (intrepid)
March 2009 to March 2011: US letter (jaunty, karmic, lucid, maverick)
April 2011 to August 2011: A4 (natty)
August 2011 to now: US letter (natty, oneiric)

The change from US letter to A4 end of April 2011 can be related with the update to Firefox 4.0.
The last change back to US letter can be related with the update to Firefox 7.0.

The workaround proposed in https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/10910/comments/109 worked for me.
A fix should change the FF setting according to the locale.
