Hi, I'm having some issues with printing PDFs from Firefox. A lot of times, I have to scale PDF files more than 100%. I was able to do this before but I am not able to do it now. Whenever I scale a PDF using the scale option in the printing dialog of Firefox, nothing changes. Here's a screenshot:

1. When the "Scale" is set to 100% https://i.imgur.com/BrP3hIA.png 2. When the "Scale" is set to 120% https://i.imgur.com/a1v4t5z.png As you can see, nothing happens when I increase the scale above 100%. I know that the PDF will get cut if I increase it more than 100% but it was still useful when I wanted to only print the top left part of a PDF. Is this a bug or is this intentional? Is there a fix for this?
