            Bug ID: 123649
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Brochure printing scales document to fit paper size
           Product: Writer
           Version: 3.4.1
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: printing

I have created in Writer a prayer book for my grandma, with these settings: 
page: 7.5cm x 11cm. 
margins: 0.8,1.0,0.7,0.8
layout: mirrored

I want to print this as booklet on A4 paper, then cut it. 
If I print the document from OO and check "booklet" in printing dialog / page
layout, in the preview and on paper, my pages are arranged in booklet fashion,
but scaled to fit the printer paper size. 
There is no setting available to change this. 

Indeed, OO.org is missing in the printer dialog settings like: 
- scale to fit
- actual size
controlling how the document is rendered for the printer, in relation to the
printer page size. 

In case of printing the document normally, having a different page size for the
document then the one available to the printer, with no scaling made by the
printer driver, the page is printed according to "actual size". 
(ie my 7.5x11cm page is printed actual size on A4 paper). 

In the particular case of booklet however, the assembled booklet is printed
scale to fit.

I can provide example document and the resulting output using PDF Creator
virtual printer. 

If I print the document normally and create the booklet arrangement from the
printer driver, everything comes out ok.
