No. The only thing that looks like it could be raw output is the choice in the properties subdialog of the print dialog called "Printer Language Type" which allows selection of pdf (the default) and several levels of postscript, one of which is labelled "from driver" which I assume means use the driver says it likes ps. How does OO do printing? Does it produce a pdf and then hand that off? If so, then presumably the print to file option for pdf is the exact output that would be fed to the print mechanism? When sending to the printer I have the option of different varieties of postscript as well as pdf (default), but print to file only shows pdf so I assume that's what oo produces? If I print to file and generate a pdf, it looks ok, but of course it is page-by-page without any duplexing operating. It is behaving as if there is a %%Requirements: duplex (tumble) command in the postscript file. I suspect the problem is in the print system, not oo, but it would be nice to get the output from OO right before it goes to the print mechanism, and then also know what the cmd is that it's using to send to the print spooler.
