--- Comment #3 from RGB <[email protected]> --- Writer is not a page layout program like Scribus, but it is centred on "content flow": the content defines how pages are used and not the other way round. In fact, page breaks on Writer are a paragraph/object property (Text flow tab on the paragraph/object format or style definition), not a page property. With a 320 pages Writer document opened right now behind my browser (and the other 400+ pages Writer documents on my hard drive) I think the page numbering system used by Writer is great, far better and powerful than Word's system. It's not perfect, of course, but there are already other reports about its problems (linked page styles, for example...). I think you are looking for a DPT tool like Scribus, something that Writer will never be: Writer is for a different kind of documents were automated formatting is far more important than manual adjustments. *Almost Off Topic note*: it would be possible to turn Draw into a simple DPT tool by adding to it text frames (not just text boxes as it have now, but full frames like in Writer) and the possibility to use different page styles on the same document. Not sure if someone else have already proposed something like this (or if it's even possible): if not, this is your chance :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
