Hello, please can you build version with paper size set to A4?

kendallb commented 6 years ago

Ahh, I see I have it hard coded to US letter. Probably should add this as a command line option to b able to change the paper type that is used. At the moment I don't have the Qt tools installed to build this as I have rebuild my Windows VM since I write this. So I will need to install the tools again and then make some changes.

Ok try the new version in the deploy directory. I added a new -a parameter to select between A4 and Letter paper.

Many thanks. This is it! You made my day.

It is possible build with higher QT version? This version QT have incorrect letter spacing under Windows OS. https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-28774

Unfortunately it is not possible because they dropped the QtWebKit control in Qt after version 5.0 for some reason. There was talk of bringing it back but last I checked it has not happened. I did see some third party libraries to bring it back but last time I tried I could not get it working. It would be nice to have if build with something later than 4.8.6.
