Description emmanuel@engelhart.org 2008-05-06 09:12:06 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I have a dia document with only one diagram on one page. Scale is 100.0 and the diagram takes a whole unique page. If I want to print it, 5 white pages are "printed" in addition.

Steps to reproduce:
1. load the document
2. print it

Actual results:
I have one correctly printed page with my diagram and 5 other white pages.

Expected results:
Only one printed page with my diagram.

Does this happen every time?
yes

The diagram includes a bunch of empty text objects which were growing the layers bounding box. One way to fix the output would be to delete these objects (see bug #99375).
But the probably better way just got commited to SVN:

2008-05-10  Hans Breuer  <hans@breuer.org>

	* lib/diagramdata.c(layer_update_extents) : don't consider empty 
	objects for the overall extents. Fixes bug #531687 and lowers
	priority of bug #99375.
	
	* plug-ins/wmf/wmf.cpp : don't assume pango_context_load_font() can not
	fail. It does for font descriptions pointing to fonts not available
	on the particular system.

Thank you for this quick solution. I will wait the next ubuntu's updates of dia impatiently :)
