mparillovalorie: When you write, "I don't run gui applications as root", but you do using kdesudo, correct? I routinely kdesudo kate /etc/hosts for example.10:42

nitpeI remember trying it a few years ago with plasma 5 (or something like that) and not everything would adapt to the dpi scaling14:10

kuSuSEhow do I shrink a pdf? I have a small scanned picture that is about 900 KB but when I print to pdf it becomes 3 MB. I need the output to be less than 300KB :(16:18
nitpekuSuSE, why do you need to output to a pdf ? there is no gain on doing that, since it's not a vector17:52
