------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jun 13 17:07:21 +0000 2008 ------- I have been using Calc for too long on too many platforms to be sure about the defaults as shipped, but: Win XP defaults print dialogue to print 'selected sheets'. Print preview uses 'all sheets' page numbers to tell me which page I am looking at. So if I look at a page on sheet 3 of a big and busy spreadsheet Print Preview tells me I am looking at page 31. I like what I see and go to Print. The default 'selected sheets' is preset for me, and if I decline the 'All pages' option and choose to select my 'Pages' the grayed-out 31 comes alive. But nothing prints. I should have asked for Page 1, or left it at Page 31 and selected All sheets. Ugh Fortunately I also use Ubuntu. My default print dialogue is selected sheet and my Print preview shows page 1 of 2, so that works splendidly for me on this occasion. I can envisage situations in which I want to select by page number from a large multi-sheet spreadsheet, and this would be tedious on my Ubuntu version because I can't see how I get absolute page numbers for the whole document. On the XP XP it would be do-able. NB both current 2.4 Suggestion - either: Allow the "selected sheets-all sheets" to be sticky, and use it to condition page preview page numbering, or encourage the user to make the "selected sheets-all sheets" decision when asking for the print preview, thereby allowing the user to choose whether to see absolute or relative page numbers. (Then share this selection with the Print dialogue presets for a really nice user experience) Or you might have some other way of solving the problem.
