Issue ID: 124621
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Custom size paper ignored for printing
Product: Writer
Version: 4.0.1
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux32
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: P3
Component: printing
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Xubuntu 13.10
HP CP1215
Writer does not print properly custom size paper.
It prints it out as the closest paper format which cuts off some of the text.
Custom size is ignored during setting printing options, however a document odt
has a custom size, and the printer has a custom size paper as the option.
But such an option does not exist in Writer printing option list, when trying
to set printing from Writer. There are many different formats (depending on the
drivers) but no Custom.
Precisely the same document is printed correctly from Windows.
What indicates Writer bug is the fact that the same document is printed
correctly from Xubuntu, on the same printer (same drivers), but as PDF, from
PDF Viewer. This other software has the option to set custom size in printing
properties. This is a workaround (odt > pdf > printing).
I point it as major because different problems with printing custom sizes have
lasted for years, but they have small nuances, and no attention is put to solve
it out.
Nuances depend on printers, OS, OO version but one thing is common: problems
with printing custom size paper.
