I don't know if this will work for everyone but, helping my wife with a spreadsheet a couple of nights ago, I discovered the same "feature". Fortunately, by changing the document page layout on the page menu, the printer driver picked up the change of paper size and orientation. Perhaps that's one of the things Novell is doing to integrate OOO with the desktop? Chuck Davis PS Sorry about the duplicate post On 6/6/06, Zhang Weiwu <zhangweiwu@realss.com> wrote:
Hello. I am a long time Gentoo user just turned to SuSE for office productivity, SuSE have most everything pre-configured and my work is actually around OOO even when I was using Gentoo, thus I consider SuSE more suitable for me.
I used to print a lot of booklets, that's a simple job to do in OOO, just create the booklet in A5 size, select the printer, go to printer properties, select paper size to A4 and orientation to "Landscape", go to advanced print settings and click "brochure".
I was a bit surprised this option is 'removed' from SuSE native OOO package, the option "Orientation" simply isn't there, the OOO on Gentoo and Windows have 5 options on "Printer Properties" and OOO on SuSE there is 4 option.
What's the best solution for me now? Shall I install OOO from openoffice.org (the official RPM)?
Thank you!
