Why?

Are you using the same PPD file for your printer in both versions? I've
found switching print drivers often changes things like margins and the
printable area of the page.

Hum!

Actually... yes, in 10.2 I updated turboprint... dunno, it might have
affected :-?

But I'm not seeing a variation in page margins or printable area, but in
the actual distance between lines, which is defined by OOo.

I can test by setting a standard driver without turboprint. Hold on.

No, I switched to the standard cups printer and the problem is the same.

Another test: I just used OO-draw to print a 0.5 cm grid, and it prints
almost exact: less than half a milimiter error in 27 centimeters.
