Bug ID: 155218
Summary: Printing: selecting different page orientation does
not relayout printed content
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Printing and PDF export

Example file from Excel
If you have a lot of contents in a document trying to print, in the print
dialog preview (and in the result) the content is not relayouted, leading to
paper waste.
1. Open the attached document in Calc and in Excel (for reference).
2. File - Print, notice in both Excel and Calc there is a bit of content
flowing to the second page with Portrait orientation and Letter size.
2. Select Landscape orientation (but I think selecting a different paper size
gives similarly flawed results)
-> In Excel the print layout is changed, there is more content put on a single
landscape page, so the document will be printed to one sheet.
In Calc, the layout stays the same, even if more content could be fitted to a
landscape sheet.
Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 83b1f6b58a30bdb589e9ce73deef39f021aebde1
CPU threads: 14; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: en-US (hu_HU); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded
It has been like this since 3.5 times - likely inherited.
There was some behavior change in 6.3 with the Print dialog rework - before
that the first row of the sheet was visible in the preview area, since then it
is also lost.
Yes, all this could be prevented by first selecting Format - Page Style - Page
- Landscape but let's be able to do the sane thing from the Print dialog alone.
