Mal ein Lob...
Hallo! Neben meinen Fragen zu AOO (die sich gerade in Klärung befinden), wollte ich die Gelegenheit nutzen (wenn ich schonmal auf der Mailingliste schreibe, auf der ein paar Entwickler mitlesen), auch mal noch etwas anderes loszuwerden: Vielen Dank für so ein tolles Office Paket (Bug hin oder her - shit happens)! Was ihr und eure Kollegen hier in den letzten Jahren geschaffen habt, ist in meinen Augen eine großartige Leistung. Hut ab!

Re: pop-up help I don't understand the problem
Even this is no good for 1 sheet (4 pages) per signature. For the so-called perfect binding method, if there is more than one sheet per signature, then the sheets of each signature must be sewn together. More than one sheet per signature also results in uneven edges when the book is closed. The only way I have been able to do this, after exporting to pdf and using the booklet function, is to print pages 1 to 4, then pages 5 to 8, then pages 9 to 12, etc. This means that for a book of 200 pages, I have to run 200/4=50 print jobs. I have one book which is a dictionary consisting of 566 pages which means I have to run 142 print jobs. Of course, these figures only apply to printing on a printer with duplex capability. Otherwise, these figures are doubled.

This will shrink the pages to the half size of the sheet and reorder the pages to the sheets in the correct order, permitting one to print binding signatures (groups) of 16, 24 or 32 pages. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org

You are wrong. Just print as I say, then chop the signatures in half done the centre line. All will be well. In fact, there is no need to print in signatures for perfect binding. Just print the entire book, page 1 .. nnn on a duplex printer, using the Adobe Reader print booklet, and chop the paper stack down the centre. I do it all the time. -- Rory O'Farrell ofarr...@iol.ie - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Re: Exporting PDF from Master Document
While it very well might be the same bug, I'm not really sure. I am not exporting from page preview. However, some further testing shows me that the reason for the crash was not that I had selected Print automatically inserted blank pages but because on the Export dialog itself I had selected PDF/A-1a which my publisher advised me to select in order to get all fonts imbedded. When I deselected PDF/A-1a it exported just fine including the generation of all automatically inserted blank pages. But with PDF/A-1a selected, it crashes with and without Print automatically inserted blank pages selected.

Re: Is anyone using Apple Pages?
I have Apple’s Pages ’09 version 4.3 (1048). I rarely use it because I prefer AOO 4.0. I am attaching two documents that you asked someone to send. One is blank the other says hello world. I'm sure many other people responded to this but I thought I would to. Heck, I just might learn something from the experience. I am using OS X Version 10.8.4 I have a problem. When I want to email a document created in AOO 4.0, I clink on the email envelope (Document as E-mail), my Apple Mail program opens, but not with a new blank email that I can address and send. I have to open a new new email page and start from scratch.
