To James: I don't think so because I'm not only printing but exporting
i.e. to eps. When I open the eps with ghostscript+gsview, the page has

While I haven't had time to try the latest Dia version yet, I have
noticed for some time (both under W2k and XP) that Dia incorrectly
interprets paper sizes and margins (?).
I usually get around that by scaling down the diagram somewhat. Trial
and error sometimes to know when it fits one sheet of paper, but it
"kind-a-works". (I often try 80% or 90% as a first guess.)
This work-around wouldn't be acceptable to large diagrams that won't
reasonably fit on one page, I guess.
