Bug ID: 148698
Summary: Page Format Margin settings incorrect for Letter Size
in LO Writer
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
The Page Format Margins settings are incorrect for the Letter Size as used in
the United States (which is 8.5" × 11.0") when the Normal (0.75") Margin is
selected. In other words, for this setting, the margins should be set at 0.75"
and 7.75". For rulers, I use points – not inches, so the Normal Margins setting
should be 54 pts for the left margin and 504 pts for the right margin. Instead,
the left margin is set to 57 pts (~0.7916") and the right margin at 498 pts
(~6.916").
NOTE: The workaround for users from the United States is to avoid the Normal
(0.75") setting and use the Moderate Margin setting, but this should not be
necessary for obvious reasons.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select Letter with Normal (0.75") Margins
Actual Results:
Letter size is incorrect by amount described above in Description section.
Expected Results:
Letter size to reflect proper settings.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
