------- Additional comments from [email protected] Sun Mar 29 14:40:11 +0000 2009 ------- I posted the problem here: http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=16907&p=78472#p78472 This is the problem description: I use OO 3.0.1.3 from opensuse 11.1 since switching to opensuse 11.1 / OO 3.x the printer setup doesn't offer page size A4 any more. A4 is the correct page size, the printer supports this page size and other applications use this page size. The page settings for the document are A4. File -> printer setup->properties->page size offers Letter, Executive, A5, Com-10, DL, B5 (in that order). The same settings are offered from file->print->printer-properties-page size. This occurs with writer, calc, impress. Same behavior with oo3 from openoffice.org Language/Region setting is german (de_DE). Printing system is cups. What I found so far: with the update to suse 11.1 I switched to the printer driver provided by the manufacturer (brother model hl1230). This driver comes with a different ppd file than the ppd's from cups. I created a second cups printer (for the same physical printer) using the ppd from the cups distribution. With that printer, oo3 offers the correct printer properties (page size and resolution). What I do not understand: why only oo3 has a problem with the native ppd from brother. Does oo3 interpret the ppd on its own? I have attached the two different ppds. brother-hl1230.ppd : from the brother driver package cups-hl1230.ppd: from the cups distro --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
