Qubit <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #14 from Qubit <[email protected]> --- Testing on Ubuntu 12.04.3 + LibreOffice 4.2.0.1 and 3.3.0 (In reply to comment #0) > Created a simple notepad (8.25 x 5.5 portrait) to print 2-up, on letter > sized paper. Set printer to US Letter landscape, set layout to 2 per page, > requested 2 copies. Instead of getting 2 per page, I got 1 per page on 2 > pages. Carefully reviewing this bug, I now believe that this is the expected behavior. The pages of content in a given document are resized to n-per-page, but are not duplicated, etc.. (In reply to comment #2) > Yes, this is a bug: The phrases 2-up, 4-up, etc. is a commercial printing > term that means printing multiple copies of the same page on one, larger > sheet of paper. I this case the document to print should fit exactly twice > on a US letter sized page...that's 2-up. I'm not an expert on printing terminology, but here's what Wikipedia and Adobe say (WP references Adobe's page): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-up#Printing http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/print-multiple-pages-per-sheet.html "You can print more than one page of a PDF onto a single sheet of paper. Printing multiple pages per sheet is also called n-up printing (such as 2-up or 6-up)" To be precise, LibreOffice doesn't use the term "n-up". It uses the terminology "pages per sheet," which definitely seems to convey the current behavior, and contrasts with "copies per sheet" or similar terms that would imply automatic duplication. Given *that* description, my testing indicates that LO 3.3.0 and 4.2.0.1 (and presumably all versions inbetween) are acting as expected, and this is not a regression. (Joel -- Thoughts on this one before we resolve as NOTABUG?) --- All that being said, I do understand a desire to duplicate pages of content in a document, especially for printing purposes. That sounds like a reasonable enhancement request (which should be filed separately from this bug). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
