------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Nov 29 07:15:01 -0800 2005 ------- AS stated in the forum in the link above, one can go to File > Print > Options... > Pages to then select/deselect whether one wants to print either "Left pages" or "Right pages" (or both) as required. Nevertheless, one should only go to the trouble of entering the Options dialog for, well, options one likes to have active all the time. What about those of us who want to do that odd/even printing "on the fly"? To give a more direct example, MS Word has a drop-down selection in the Print dialog, under the "Print What" drop down, called simply "Print." There you are given the options of printing "All pages in range," "Odd Pages," and "Even Pages," so one can select them on the fly without committing the program to do that every time, as selecting that in "File>Print>Options" might imply. Maybe even going a step further, giving one the option of a clickable toolbar button to immediately print either even or odd pages (if the current page is an even page, automatically printing all odd pages only... etc.) Having a "Print Current Page" on the fly option would be great too (maybe an optional Toolbar button for it as well, or a key combination). Its not that I want OOo to be an exact replica of Word... but "little" touches like these will help me wean out of MS Word even better. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
