Which means? Only 79 and 153? Or From 79 to 153?
Related GUI/Coding issues:
- Should comma input be permitted ONLY for From field,
and not for To field? In other words should we disable following:
from 43 to 56,73 ?
- And if so, disable the To field when the from field contains a comma?
In other words disallow from 79,153 to 210 ?
By allowing all this input above, we could add interesting power to page
selection; e.g.
"from 35,45 to 53,210" should print pages 35, 45 till 53 and 210.
I don't know if the print dialog should be that intelligent, though.
Moreover, can the print command handle such peculiar page selections?
As in your case, I never have used the comma input myself; actually I even
never use the print dialog, but do View->PS first as a preview and print from
there :).
