The Page Setup menu item lacks context; it's not clear that it has something to do with printing. Page Setup is also available with adequate context from the print preview (Print menu item). We should remove it as a top-level menu item.

On Mac, Page Setup is already in the native File menu where I guess most Mac users will look for it.
Given this is specified in the design, forwarding this to Aaron/Bryan, but putting it in the reserve for now as I think we can ship with the state as-is (given that that is how it was designed...).

It might be less confusing on Mac which I suspect the designers used. FWIW, I initially didn't understand what this item meant on Linux, and it seems pointless on Windows too. It's a bug in the design as far as I can tell, so "can ship as-is since it was designed this way" is somewhat nonsensical.
Yeah, we can remove the Page Setup item from the menu. On macOS those settings are available in the print dialog and are hidden under a Show/Hide Details button. Is there a way to open the print dialog with the details section open?

I doubt it, it's an OS-provided native dialog, I think, and it remembers the last pane you had open. Certainly not without some cocoa work, plus that would be a change from the File menu and other native mac apps like Pages or TextEdit. Given this, would you want the entry removed completely, or simply keep it on OS X and remove it on Windows/Linux, to match the File menu?

We can remove it for all platforms.
