Print preview top header not centered on page

Description of the issue:
Opening the standard print dialog (CTRL+P) loads a preview, including header and footer if selected. Header includes date and time (left aligned) and webpage title (centered). However, the centered title text in the preview is in fact not centered. Same is true of this text in the final printout. This is likely a chromium issue.

**Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary):

  1. Load a page to print
  2. CTRL+P
  3. expand “More settings”
  4. ensure “Headers and footers” option is checked
  5. note that page title text appears off-center at top of print preview area

Actual Result:

Expected result:

Reproduces how often:
Consistently

Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):
Windows 10
Brave v1.73.101

Additional Information:

IIRC, Brave Browser incorporates:

PDFium

SKIA Graphics Engine

V8 (JavaScript engine)

And the adjustment - Page Setup - settings necessary for the fix you hope to find, is somewhere in those components. Most likely, beginning with, how PDFium functions.

Not to discourage, but you may be facing a campaign to establish a Page Setup setting that would be somewhere following the “Headers and footers” switch.

You might edit the category-tags of your Original Post, above, to include a “feature request”.

Thanks, I’ve added the feature-request tag.
I have confirmed that the latest release of Chrome also exhibits this issue. Perhaps it makes more sense to post the feature request on the Chromium bug tracker?
