Bug ID: 161550
Summary: Distribute on multiple sheets of paper" does not work
correctly in Libre Office Draw (PRINTING)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.4.7.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Draw
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
When drying to print an A2 drawing on multiple A3 pages, the Distribute on
multiple sheets of paper" option insists on attempting to print it on 4 (not 2)
sheets, and it positions it so that you can't create a composite (laminated)
poster without manual cropping/assembly (with scissors and sellotape)...
I think this is because LO doesn't recognise that two LANDSCAPE A3 pages make
one PORTRAIT A2 page. so it makes the Landscape A2 page from four Landscape A3
pages, and thereby makes the "Distribute on multiple sheets of paper" feature
unusable....
The same problem occurs printing A3 on A4 sheets...
