  If you select a printout to be at a specific scale, it's wrong (off by about 5%).

- Steps to Reproduce set to new value
  If you are using a custom print layout with a scalebar, it's easier to notice right away. Print something at 1:10000, for example. Then grab an actual 1:10000 scale and you'll see that the scale bar on the page is too small. From 0 to 600 metres, it should measure 60mm, but is actually only 56mm. This translates to a 40metre error when scaling things off of the printout. The scalebar does actually match the scale of the drawing though, but it is not 1:10000, as it claims.
