Test Environment

Mac OS X 10.7.5
OpenOffice 3.4.1 (Build 9593)

Observation about the format

In my environment there are two different predefined paper formats.

1. Format: Screen, Width: 21.00 cm, Height: 28,00 cm (in Portrait), all margins
set to 0,00 cm
2. Format: A4,  Width: 21.00 cm, Height: 29,70 cm (in Portrait), left, right &
top margin: 1.00 cm, bottom margin 1.45 cm

It's not entirely clear to me which of these two formats (if any) was used in
the original report and follow-up commenter.

Observations while not altering the Margin fields:

* For a new presentation the format is pre-set to Screen/Landscape.
* Height and Width are swapped when I change from Portrait to Landscape
orientation, independent of the selected format.
* No margins are changed when changing the orientation as long as no other
changes are made, in particular the margins for the 'A4' format stay the same.
* Going from 'Screen/Landscape' to 'A4' without changing the orientation sets
the right margin to 1.45cm and the other margins to 1.00cm.
* Going from 'Screen/Landscape' to 'Screen/Portrait' and then to 'A4' set the
right margin to 1.45cm and the other margins to 1.00cm.
* Going from 'Screen/Landscape' to 'A4' and then changing from Landscape
re-sets the margins as mentioned above. Changing to Portrait while staying in
'A4' leaves the margins unchanged.

 I'd expect the same state independent of the order in which format &
orientation are changed.

Some follow-up tests

* Start with a new presentation, the 'Page Setup' is as in point 1. above
* Leave the orientation setting in Landscape
* Entering anything a left margin LM > 27,50 cm automatically adjusts the value
to 27,50 cm no matter whether I click the OK button and redisplay the Page
Setting dialog or leave the text field using the TAB key.
* Negative values entered are changed to 0,00 cm.

Now change the orientation while the format is 'Screen'

* When the pre-set margins are not altered by the user, changing the
orientation form the pre-set Landscape to Portrait, the margins are not
changed.
* Entering (for example) 1.00, 2.00, 3.00 and 4.00 cm for the left, right, top
and bottom margin before changing the orientation to Portrait sets the margins
to 0,64 cm for the left, right and top margin and the bottom margin to 1,45 cm.

Using 'A4' as the Paper format

* Start with a new presentation and change the paper format to 'A4' before
doing anything else
* Entering a value of 0.63cm (or one that's rounded down to this value) for the
left, top or bottom margin yields a warning dialog saying "The margin settings
are out of print range". For the right margin the lowest value not triggering
this warning is 1.45 cm.
