I've found a temporary work-around for this bug. Now I just select everything 
on my A5 design page and group it. Then I copy and paste it into a landscape 
A4 design page (another document). Depending on the numbering of the page, I 
either right- or left-align it. For example, pg. 1 (of the eight A5 pages) 
must be right-aligned and pg. 8 (of the eight A5 pages) must be left aligned 
on the first landscape A4 design page. 
 
After I have done this for all the pages in my A5 brochure, i.e. essentially 
putting two portrait A5 pages on one landscape A4 page, I then print out my 
landscape A4 document. 
 
A more concise example: 
 
a5-doc1: 
 - 8 portrait A5 pages 
 
a4-doc2: 
 - 4 landscape A4 pages 
 
a5-doc1, pg.1 -> a4-doc2, pg.1, right-aligned 
a5-doc1, pg.8 -> a4-doc2, pg.1, left-aligned 
 
a5-doc1, pg.2 -> a4-doc2, pg.2, left-aligned 
a5-doc1, pg.7 -> a4-doc2, pg.2, right-aligned 
 
a5-doc1, pg.3 -> a4-doc2, pg.3, right-aligned 
a5-doc1, pg.6 -> a4-doc2, pg.3, left-aligned 
 
a5-doc1, pg.4 -> a4-doc2, pg.4, left-aligned 
a5-doc1, pg.5 -> a4-doc2, pg.4, right-aligned 
 
Anyway, when I do this the margins are just perfect-- 1.5cm around and 3cm 
between. This is yet another proof that it's not my printer that's the 
problem. 
 
Oh yeah, I also tested OO.org Writer's brochure feature using a very similar 
scenario as the OO.org Draw scenario this issue describes. OO.org Writer 
worked fine-- margins were just right. It's a pity I can't just convert all my 
draw documents into writer documents!
