I am talking about making that installation default, meaning that after installing OO is set to print just current sheet. > > > If not this, at least making result of "Print" more consistent with > > "Export to PDF" and "Page Preview" (last two do not respect "Print > > only selected sheets" and output all sheets regardless) would make > > behavior more logical and predictable to users. > > Please share your thoughts on the subject. > > Page preview is a different, independent view on the document > (you can keep a preview window open while editing the same > file in another window), not a function that is called with a > selection state. And this view should respect user by showing current sheet, if user has set it so. The very purpose of Page Preview is to show what user will get on paper. With current behavior users need to be trained to not trust OpenOffice as whole and Page preview in particular. This seems to be very wrong to me. It instills feeling of uncertainty into users and that is bad feeling to associate with the product. > > > P.S. Is there any sense in voting for issues?
