** Description changed: - Please see screenshot. - From Writer, I chose new->labels and then chose the Avery letter-sized template 5167 to print out some address labels. + 1) lsb_release -rd + Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS + Release: 12.04 - The settings shown look correct for the physical sheet, but the layout shown (test test test) and its printed version have no spacing at all between the columns. That is, in the layout note the difference between horizontal pitch and horizontal width. This is not reflected in what Libreoffice actually draws. - This bug makes the whole labels facility useless. + 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer + libreoffice-writer: + Installed: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 + Candidate: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 + Version table: + *** 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main i386 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + 1:3.5.2-2ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages - The labels should be rendered according to the settings and diagram - shown. + 3) What is expected to happen in Writer is when one clicks File -> New -> Labels -> tab Labels -> drop down Brand Avery Letter Size -> drop down Type 5167 Return Address -> text box Label type: + test test + test + test - I have no workaround. + -> click New Document and the content is fully displayed. + + 4) What happens instead is the third line down is cut off.
