Public bug reported: Binary package hint: openoffice.org
There are a couple of problems when printing a multi-page document on a duplex-capable printer in openoffice. If you have a 4 page document (1,2,3,4) and print it on a duplex printer it should come out on 2 pages (1,2) and (3,4). However if you create such a document in openoffice and then choose to print 2 copies the pages will come out as (1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4) ie the collation doesn't account for the printer working in duplex mode. This has been reported (not by me) to openoffice as: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=46953 However they say that the reason for the bug is that the printer was not configured to work correctly with openoffice by running spadmin. Since the printer was configured using the standard printer setup these settings should get propogated through to openoffice correctly by the printer setup program. A related problem is that if you create a landscape document (I used impress) then it doesn't matter which type of duplex mode (short or long side) you use, the second page always gets printed upside down. This may well be related to the first problem. ** Affects: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Duplex collation is not configured correctly in openoffice https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110284 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
