I never heard of PDF-Redirect.  I went to there site.  I wonder what 
print options it has compared to doPDF and the non-free PDF995 and 
CutePDF?  I have been using doPDF for years on Windows, since I was 
creating e-newsletter version of the printed ones back in the late 
90's and early 00's.  I never changed.  When I went to Linux as my 
default desktop platform in Feb 2010, I looked for a good PDF 
printer.  CUPS-PDF was the one that came up in the repository search.


So, there are many different ways to print a PDF file, 
internal-exporting and various PDF printers.  You must try a few on 
your platform and choose which one is the beat for you.
I use PDFCreator from PDFforge http://www.pdfforge.org/ which is a 
virtual printer on Windows like doPDF and many others — but is also Open 
Source.

In LibreOffice 3.4.4 (which I use), the formatting options in Calc and
Writer are the same. So, unfortunately no easy improvement.

In addition to
- D = Day as 2
- DD = Day as 02
- DDD/NN = Day as Sun-Sat
- /NNN = Day as Sunday to Saturday
there should be
- D = Day as 2th

Since I can't program, I don't know if this is an easy or bumpy
route to improvement.

Kind regards,

Julius

One issue would be that “D” should actually = *2nd*  not *2th* …

ie. it would be /highly/ localization/language dependent to try to indicate 
an ordinal rather than just let the number stand on it's own…  if I recall it 
would be 2e in French, but I think I've also seen  2me  … so it could be 
quite problematic, particularly with any large selection of regions.
