--- Comment #4 from zap <bugzi...@g-t-b.com> 2012-08-08 16:22:30 UTC --- Today I tried the first official portable version of LibreOffice (3.3.0.4) and the bug was already there! The downloads at downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ start with v3.3.0.1 So I guess this bug was there from the beginning of LibreOffice. This bug is VERY annoying, because it produces unpredictible effects in an automatic process. A mail merge is supposed to make things easier, not to produce messed up letters that are send to customers! My example produces a lot of obvious errors, but I'm convinced that there will be less obvious errors in standard layouts. Moreover the option to suppress automatically created empty pages is pretty suspicious to me. Why are these pages generated and then need to be suppressed? This doesn't look like clean design. My example letter has 4 pages. If I print it with one address selected the print preview counts and shows 4 pages, with some errors already (picture and page number (on page 2) missing). If I select 2 addresses the print preview counts and shows 7 (!) buggy pages. If I select 3 addresses the print preview counts and shows 11 (!) buggy pages, page 8 is completely blank. The new print preview (not the old page preview) is a reliable prediction of the errors to expect. But maybe it's also the source of these problems (maybe caused by some pre-processing). I believe this because (OO) versions which don't produce theses errors didn't have this print preview yet! And in ApacheOO there is the same print preview - along with the bugs described here! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
