--- Comment #16 from Eek! A Bug. Kill it! <[email protected]> ---
First of all, you send me an email five or six years after I posted a bug
report and do so with the false salutation: "Dear [email protected]".
That is not me, so neither himajin100000 or I must be all the "dear" to you.
Secondly, under My Bugs, my original posting is not even listed, nor does it
appear in any of the See Also bugs lists. Thirdly, in the My Bugs list, all of
them have been marked "Never email me about this bug", yet years later, you do
anyway??? The reason I marked them as such is because of my frustration over
the curt responses I got -- not to mention that none of the bugs were ever
resolved, with the common refrain of "I cannot duplicate the bug" or "we are
NOT going to fix it because it only affects 5% of users!!"

My original report of this bug dealt with the fact that the US Letter page
style margins setting for the Normal (0.75") setting is incorrect. Even though
this would seemingly be an easy fix, it will obviously never get addressed if
the bug is not assigned to someone. Of course, the alternative I discovered is
to use the Moderate Margin setting (which has the same, albeit correct, margin
setting for the US Letter Size (8-1/2" x 11") for 0.75" margins). Not sure why
there is a duplication, except in this case it is nice because of the error in
the intuitive setting. It still "bugs" the hell out of me that I cannot use the
proper setting and have to use an unspecific, nebulous setting such as
Moderate.

Now it seems the error is also in the metric versions as well. How can you get
all the other margin settings correct -- except one?

You also ask for additional help, but you have a long history of ignoring bug
reports, so why would you expect users to provide that help years after the bug
was first reported? Additionally, you want users to download the oldest version
of the software to determine when the bug first occurred? That is irrelevant.
And, do you really think users want to clutter up the registry and hard drives
with multiple copies of the same software? The fact of the matter is, the bug
is not in the other company's software that was based on the same original open
source you used. I was going to learn C++ just to fix all these bugs I've
discovered, but I hate OOP, and in particular the C++ and its ever growing
plethora of libraries that make mastering the language difficult as hell.
