There is a scripting api for page setup options: SetPrintOptions.  It
supports margins, orientation, page number, item spacing, and chart size.
There is no standard syntax for this, but it wouldn't be hard to build an
extension command for these settings.

To write it a bit more precisely:

Printing options for pdf are taken from the "page setup" as help mentions.
Where can I adjust them, except for the menu which gives me no "paste to
syntax" and no entry in the log.

Just forget the footnote stuff... ;-)

Any ideas someone?

Best,
  Lars
