I have a large text field at the bottom of the master page and the page numbers appear correctly on the screen but in the PDF they are just small empty squares. The same here - I cannot find any ON-OFF for printing page numbers. I had the same trouble with the same document in the same Scribus version a year ago and it was solved, but I don't remember how.

I just tried to duplicate this in 2 ways, first by creating a Custom
document 148x210 mm, and the other an A5 page.
On import to Adobe Reader, Properties says they're both 148x210 mm.

This is with 1.5.4svn on Linux. You might at least update your Scribus
to 1.5.3, if not a 1.5.4svn snapshot.

You can get snapshots at:
