I apologise from the start if the subject of this thread has already bee thrashed to death in this forum. It guess I pay detailed attention to what is going on only when it affects me directly.
I am discovering a number of page formatting problems with LO Writer which are nearly driving me nuts. I have tried turning so many knobs and am beginning to lose my sense of direction! I am using LO Version: 4.1.6.2 on OpenSuse 13.1 I want to print a two-page A4 document, the first page being portrait the second landscape. The pages are separated by a page break so that LO Writer displays them properly. On printing these two pages I face two problems 1) the second (landscape) page is printed in portrait with the text on the right being cut off 2) the page margins (default 2x2x2x2 cm) are not respected. At least the top margin is ignored (= 0 cm) on the printed page. The left margin seems OK, if a bit tight (=1.9 cm) Two printers (one Brother, one HP) both give me a similar result. If I print the document to a pdf file, the result looks perfect on the screen, and indeed, with respect to the two problems above, even the printed result looks OK. However, the characters printed out on paper are not all identical to those in the pdf file, depending on the choice of font. I have decided to abandon the 'print to file alternative' for the time being, to concentrate on the direct printing variant. Can anyone tell me what is going on in LO Writer? -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
