--- Comment #13 from Donald Cram <donc...@gmail.com> ---
Hi. This is very irritating! I spent hours in total, trying to print a single
poster across a 2x2 set of pages, first in LibreOffice 6.2.8.2 and then
installing and trying LibreOffice 6.4.6. I verify that bug occurs in both
LibreOffice Draw and in LibreOffice Impress, on my computer running Windows 10.
Perhaps this helps describe the problem:
1. My "Page" or "Slide" image has dimensions changed to almost double a regular
letter sized sheet (by going to "Page" or "Slide"/ "Properties", then changing
the dimensions). I entered large size text which fills it up, basically what
should be printed out on a 2x2 array of letter-sized paper. I want this to
print out onto 4 letter-sized sheets which I can tape together.
2. It looks like the program correctly identifies the 4 starting points out my
big image, i.e. the four points in the big image which should be at the top
left points of the four pages. But then it prints the image reduced to letter
page size, when it should print (in full size) only the portion of the image
which fits going down and to the right.
More specifically, on the first page, it starts at the image's top left but
prints a letter-sized reduction of the whole image, when it should only print
the top left quarter of it in the same space. On the second page, it starts
properly midway across the image, but again prints in reduced size, rather than
full size, so the result is basically the right half of the top half of the
image, and then blank space. On the third page it starts at the right point,
halfway down the the left side of the image, but it prints in reduced size, so
basically is printing the lower half of the image and then blank space. On the
fourth page, it starts printing at the correct point, halfway across and
halfway down the image, and it should print the bottom right quarter of the
image in full size, but instead it prints that in reduced size, and then blank
space.
Depending on how the program expresses it, maybe you just need to fix
calculation of the four bottom right points on the image that are to appear at
the bottom right of the four pages. For the first page, the correct bottom
right point on the image would be a point about half way down and half way to
the right. And not the bottom right point of the image.
Hopefully this helps you see where calculations in the program are going wrong.
