Anyway, many thanks for your response and I have finally
got OpenOffice to *print* a document!
If this is typical for the latest versions of OO, I'm
surprised the code made it past the beta-test stage.
From the responses you would have read here, this is not 'typical'
for the latest version of OO to behave - BUT I have to add that only
today I updated my 10.3 system (which included the latest OO
upgrades) and I *STILL* cannot print a (*.odt) document.
I usually have no problems printing OOo documents, but I find the
options offered by the print tool very limited compared with Kprinter.
For this reason, this is what I do with every new openSuse install:
To send print jobs through “Kprinter”,
run “/usr/lib/ooo-2.0/program/spadmin” in the command line, add a “New
printer”, “Connect a PDF converter”, using the default driver, and
use “kprinter” as the appropriate command and name of the printer.
Finally, set this new printer as the default printer.
From then on, I always send print jobs to this "new printer" Kprinter,
which then opens kprinter and allows me to resize, print 2 pages in 1,
adjust colour, etc.
But, this is a "fiddle" and nothing more!
I found the "fix", after doing some searching, dated back last August
(2007) about outputting a file to pdf.
In openSuse 10.3, OO was updated only (?)a couple of days ago. But the
problem still exists!
Oh, never mind :-) . Next year maybe better.
Ciao
