--- Comment #2 from Lionel Elie Mamane <[email protected]> ---
Reproduced in my libreoffice-3-6 and libreoffice-4-0 development builds.

I didn't consider that print layout makes much sense for forms, since they are
note designed to be printed, but used on screen. Web layout, which is more like
'screen layout' (that is, adjust to size of window dynamically instead of being
fixed on a "paper size") makes more sense.

However, if someone finds use in a print layout for forms, I'm not opposed to
allowing it.

As such, my opinions are:

 - The issue of the form switching to Print layout and being stuck there
   after "File / Print" is a genuine bug. However, it is not specific to
   forms; the same happens with a vanilla Writer document.

 - We need to be consistent on whether we allow print layout for forms or not.

   If we don't allow it, the "view / (web|print) layout" menu entries should
   be greyed out *both* in design mode (edit mode) *and* in normal mode.

   If we do allow it, then the "view / (web|print) layout" should be enabled
   *both* in design mode (edit mode) *and* in normal mode. The default when
   creating a new form should be Web layout.
