Robert,

Thank you. That helped a lot. I had looked in Roaming and didn't see it,
but maybe because it was all white. My File Manager is dark background.

I have renamed OpenOffice to OpenOffice.old and opened it, and it didn't
crash. I didn't have many settings, so I'm not going to stress over it.
I'll have to find the files I had open, but that's another issue.

Thank you for providing me with information relevant to Open Office. I love
to be able to ask questions and get information from this terrific,
supportive, mail list.

Writing '%AppData%' is meant to be instead of specifying 
'C:\Users\username\AppData'.

I think that 'OO Software > OO ShutUp10' is related to 'O ShutUp10', some 
kind of privacy tool. I think the OpenOffice folder that you're looking for may

numbering book pages?

[Michael Coughlin]

Open Office people:

I am trying to design a 100-page book using Open Office 4.1.6

For three days I have wrestled with various issues and seem to have most of
them worked out. However, I cannot get the page  numbering sequence to work
as I would like.  I have front matter that I would like numbered with Roman
numerals and a few pages later the rest of the book numbered with Arabic
numerals.  If needed, I can skip the first set of Roman numerals (though I
would prefer to have them), but every time I apply the footer numbers to
the later section of the text, the number starts with 13--which in fact it
is the 13th page, but I want the numbering to start there with 1.  What can
I do to correct this problem?

Re: Need to print ONLY selected pages

[Alan B]

After selecting File > Print from the menu look for the "Range and copies"
section of the print dialog. In there is a Pages radio button. Select
"Pages" then enter the desired range or ranges of pages in the box.

For example enter "1-3;7;11-12;19" without the quotes to print pages 1
through 3, and 7, and 11 through 12, and 19.

Normally there options are for the whole document not just for one or more 
pages.

OK selecting PREFERENCES and then APPEARANCE open a window with more options, 
you don’t tell what action you took to view the choices and I can’t believe 
that things are solved without any action from your side.

Only you can tell.

Undo what you have done.
Alternatively you can be more specific about your Operating System and what 
part of OpenOffice you have problems with.

Options/choices at bottom of all pages are blacked out.

I am using OO 4.1.3 and lately find that my selection (choices e.g., save, 
discard, ect.) at the bottom of all relevant pages are “blacked out.” The only 
way that I have found to view them is to select PREFERENCES and then 
APPEARANCE.  What have I done to cause this or better, how can this problem be

If you create in writer, save it in writer! I assume you haven’t used Styles.
There are many differences and if you don’t understand them don’t
experiment with an important document.

doc no writer with 3 pages, no word with 5 pages?

[Daniel Roma]

Hello, how are you?
I did this document in the writter, formatted with  page format a4. I
printed in a place near here and it has word 2010, at the time I did
not realize but I got home and left only 2 of the 4 images that were
on pages 2 and 3. I have word 2010 in the notebook and it happens the
same. What can be this difference of pages, opening from writter to
word, being that in both the default is the format of page a4? The
images are maps and formatting decreasing size to leave the same page
.
Thank you for your help.

Re: How to set up 2 A5 pages to print on 1 A4 sheet

I need to type set and print 2 x A5 pages in a document file onto a

The contents of the pamphlet will consist of 2 additional A5 sized

after initial back cover /front cover printing.


So you actually want to print *four* A5 pages on two-sided A4.


I cannot find how to perform this set up from the open document work space.


Try a "brochure".

I cannot work out how to set the page orientation to landscape 
rather than default portrait (upright) orientation. Further, I 
cannot find how to set the document size to A5.


I'm surprised you cannot find this in either the built-in help text 
or the documentation.


You may be suffering from Microsoftitis. Microsoft Office products - 
such as Word - treat page size and orientation as printer properties. 
OpenOffice treats them instead as aspects of page formatting (which I 
happen to think is more sensible). So go to Format | Page... | Page 
and set the page size and orientation there. But you don't want your 
*page* orientation to be landscape, in fact: those A5 pages are in 
portrait orientation. It's the A4 *paper* that needs to be in 
landscape orientation..


OpenOffice will arrange what you need automatically:
o Set your document to have A5 pages in portrait orientation.
o Create the document normally - all four pages *sequentially*.
o Go to File | Printer Settings... | Properties... and set your 
printer to use A4 paper in landscape orientation.
o Go to Tools | Options... | OpenOffice Writer | Print | Pages and 
tick Brochure. (Alternatively you can select this in the print 
dialogue at File | Print... | Options... | Page Layout | Layout | Brochure.)
o Print the document double-sided on A4 paper (automatically or 
manually as necessary).
OpenOffice will print pages 4 and 1 on one side of the paper and 2 
and 3 on the other.


In fact, the brochure facility is even cleverer: if your document 
contains more than four pages, they will be distributed across more 
than one sheet of paper such that you can fold the resulting stack to 
create a brochure containing an arbitrary number of pages.



I am running AOO 4.1.3 on iMac.


Then you'll have to translate Tools | Options... to OpenOffice | 
Preferences, of course.


I trust this helps.

How to set up 2 A5 pages to print on 1 A4 sheet

[paulranger]

I need to type set and print 2 x A5 pages in a document file onto a single 
sheet of A4 paper.
  - this shows 
 the back cover (text left justified) of an A5 size pamphlet
 with the front cover (containing an inserted picture with text being centred 
inside the line drawing insertion. being centre justified.  
 The contents of the pamphlet will consist of 2 additional A5 sized pages of 
text - both left justified to be printed on the blank side after initial 
back cover /front cover printing.

I cannot find how to perform this set up from the open document work space.  

I cannot work out how to set the page orientation to landscape rather than 
default portrait (upright) orientation. Further, I cannot find how to set the 
document size to A5.

I am grateful for advice fellow AOO users may be able to suggest.

I am running AOO 4.1.3 on iMac.

Sincerely, ranger1.

Because you are modifying the page style which

Well, not exactly fine: it would be easier if you 
could set the third sheet to print in landscape 
automatically, of course - and you can.



... but I want to save a four page .pdf with the one page as landscape.


There are workarounds for this, but you don't need these.


Can anyone tell me how to go about this please.


Page orientation is a property of page styles. If 
you have not consciously set any page style, all 
your pages will probably have the Default page 
style. You can see this when you go to Format | 
Page...: the panel is headed Page Style: Default. 
So all you need is to use a different page style for the rogue sheet.


o Go to Format | Styles and Formatting... (or 
click the Styles and Formatting button in the 
Formatting toolbar, or press F11).

o Click the Page Styles button in the Styles and Formatting window.
o Click Default (or whatever your main style is called).
o Click the "New Style from Selection" button.
o Give your new style a name.
o Right-click the new style name in the list and select Modify... .
o Change the orientation of this style to Landscape.
o With the rogue sheet displayed, double-click 
the new style name to apply it to that sheet.

o Voilà!

I trust this helps.

Better is to use existing functionalities.
Go to Format -> Styles and Formatting, the second icon at the top is

Create a Landscape and a Portrait Style for each sheet select the

You talk of "default" style without saying whether you are talking of page, 
paragraph, or character styles.


sorry for being so unclear but I am talking about the field that 
appears when you press F11 which regulates a lot of the paragraphing 
including font style, etc.


It seems that the default paragraph style in particular is protected 
and not overwritten when material is copied in. But the process 
works perfectly well, it seems, with styles being automatically 
imported, if you use *custom* styles instead of modifying Default.


not sure I understand this. two remarks:

a) it sounds like you are saying that 'default' (via 'F11') will not 
be altered by copy and paste; if so, that's what I've observed.


b) it sounds like you are saying other customizations will be altered 
by copy and paste; if so, I have not found this to be so - I don't 
see them via 'F11' looking at 'applied styles' or at 'custom styles'.


I still haven't do your experiment but I intend to try it.

I probably have misunderstood you though. my apologies in advance; oh 
heck, I apologize for past misunderstandings too!

Felmon,
I have used the Template Changer extension in the past for AOO 3.x, however, 
it is my understanding that it is not compatible with AOO 4.x+ and is no

AOO versions.  In your later posting, you say that you are using AOO 4.1.1. 
Are you still able to use the AOO 3.x Template Changer extension with 4.1.1?

I did a quick test applying a somewhat 'stylized' template to a pretty 
simple (minor formatting) document and to all appearances it seems to 
have worked.


the template has a page header and footer, the footer has text for the 
title and top and bottom borders and page numbering; header has a 
place-holder where the title of the section would appear (if the 
simple document had a section title; paragraphing is now 1.5 line 
spacing.


yes, seems formatting has been carried over.

it is version 4.1.1; template changer is at 1.2.6. I have not checked 
for updates to the latter.

weird.

the way I tell is the style list in the destination doc does not

yeah, I'm stuck doing this.

only the first option works as the document is highly formatted so I'd 
have to recreate the formatting.


luckily relatively short, need five chunks from 50+ pages.

related issue: is there an easy way to convert page numbers from 
'fields' to ordinary numbers?


sigh, I assume I have to re-set pagination on each sub-file if I want 
that.


maybe I should have done this as a 'master document'? fooled with that 
a couple of yrs ago but the added layer of complexity did not bring an 
added degree of gain.

Page Styles
By default, page style "First Page" does no have headers or footers.
Use that page style for the first seven pages.

Page styles "Left Page" and "Right Page", by default, do not have
headers or footers.  Enable headers ">Insert >Headers and Footers
>Headers" then select the appropriate page style.

You can copy and paste material to other sheets or create formulae on 
those sheets to refer to the original data. But you probably don't 
mean "sheets" but instead - as your Subject header clarifies - all *pages*.


I have entered text on the first row of all the columns. then, split 
/ freeze so the headings stay at the top of the page when scrolling 
down in the spreadsheet. Open office 4.1.2.


Good - though "split" and "freeze" are different ideas, of course: 
you probably want "freeze" here.


When I print preview the headings appear only on the first page. I 
went into the format /print ranges/edit/ columns to repeat and 
selected the page icon, then dragged from the first column to the 
last. Selected "ok" The headings disappear when I preview the rest 
of the pages.


Close - but no cigar! You want the first row(s) to repeat, not any 
columns, so you need to use Format | Print Ranges > | Edit... | Rows 
to repeat, not ...Columns to repeat. Click on a cell in the first row 
or drag down relevant cells in any column. The appropriate rows will 
be repeated in all columns.


I trust this helps.

Bei dem oben angeführten Programm steht:

Da würde ich doch LO-Portable eine Chance geben - eventuell bleiben die

Du musst die Datei mit dem Programm Pages öffnen und als .doc speichern.
Erst danach kannst du somit exportierte Datei in OpenOffice

To print just alternate pages of a document, you do more or less what 
you have described. In the Print dialogue, under "Range and copies", 
click the Pages radio button and enter the list of required pages as 
"1,3,5,7,9" or whatever (no quotes). I don't see any way to indicate 
"only odd pages" without specifying them explicitly.


If you want to do this, the odd-numbered pages must presumably be 
clearly identifiable as different in some way. It might be easier to 
edit out the original even-page material - probably in a copy of the 
original document - leaving just the material that you need to print.


If your real purpose is to be able to print the material 
double-sided, there are often easier ways to achieve this.


Incidentally, your Subject header, "numbering of pages", doesn't fit 
this question. Are you perhaps asking instead to be able to number 
the pages of your document with odd numbers only - so that the second 
page is numbered "3", the third page "5", and so on? There are ways to do that.


The information I am trying to print in this manner comes as an 
attachment of an e-mail.


I don't see that the source of your material matters, in fact.

I trust this helps.

I took the question to mean "how to number the pages to be only 1, 3, 5 etc".  
My method will do that.  

Brian Barker's method will print only the  odd numbered pages.  

Depending on the operating system in use, the print dialogs in use and the 
exact printer, there is sometimes an option (possibly on the Page Layout tab of 
the /File /Print dialog) to print only odd or even pages.

A further thought: my memory is that Adobe Reader allows the printing of odd or 
even pages only - I can't check as it is not installed on this computer - if 
the document is large it might be simplest to /File /Export as PDF and then 
print the odd pages from the PDF using that option in Adobe Reader rather than 
having to hand enter all the odd page numbers in the printing selection of 
OpenOffice.

There are different options:

deselect the Same content left/right option. Now insert Fields .. 
Page number on page 1
   Only odd pages show page numbers. This is only useful if the rest of

2. Use the Right Page and Left Page formats  and update the Next Style

   So for Right page use Left Page as the next Style. This way you can

Set the page style in use to be Right page style only. 

When printing you may need to uncheck "Print automatically inserted blank 
pages" on  /Tools /Options /OpenOffice Writer : Print.

The option for "odd pages only" is not in the AOO Page settings, but 
rather is found in the print dialog AFTER YOU HAVE EXPORTED TO PDF.

If you are working in Writer, the answer is more or less no.  Writer works on 
a stream of text and inserts page breaks where necessary into the output, which 
is intended for a printer. The pages you see are fictitious and depend on the 
output paper size.  If you mark text on a page and insert it somewhere else in 
the document, it is inserted into the stream of text and the text re-paginated 
to account for the missing text in one place and the added text in the other 
place.

If you have marked the text by /Insert /Manual break : Page break, then that 
text can be moved as a unit and will remain a unit, provided you move the 
inserted page breaks with it.

Nee, die Formate sind nicht zueinander kompatibel.

1. Das RTF-Format.

Ever heard that, when dealing with long OO-documents, you can get some blank extra-pages 
randomly added before some inserted .jpg images (that is, not a precisely

Is it a known OO-Writer's oddity? Any fixing action to suggest?


there may be some legitimate causes and some bug-related causes. the former 
include at least the following:

(1) the jpg is so large that only a blank page can hold it, while the page 
before it is not really blank but contains some whitespace characters, such as 
spaces or empty paragraphs;

(2) the jpg is anchored to a page rather than to a character or paragraph, and 
there is not enough text in the document to fill all the preceding pages; so, 
some blank pages are added.

however, i have also experienced the random addition of the pages. they are 
cured by switching to the page preview mode, possibly because openoffice does 
more precise computing at that time, which would be impossible in the 'as fast 
as you type' mode.

also, openoffice does some reformatting when it saves a document for the first 
time. for example, i often have less lines fitting a page after saving and 
reopening. i think that is because it transfers the more precise 64-bit numbers

1.251 cm by some malfunctional rounding procedure.

 there may be some legitimate causes and some bug-related causes. the former 
 include at least the following:
 
 (1) the jpg is so large that only a blank page can hold it, while the page 
 before it is not really blank but contains some whitespace characters, such 
 as spaces or empty paragraphs;
 
 (2) the jpg is anchored to a page rather than to a character or paragraph, 
 and there is not enough text in the document to fill all the preceding pages; 
 so, some blank pages are added.
 
 however, i have also experienced the random addition of the pages. they are 
 cured by switching to the page preview mode, possibly because openoffice does 
 more precise computing at that time, which would be impossible in the 'as 
 fast as you type' mode.
 
 also, openoffice does some reformatting when it saves a document for the 
 first time. for example, i often have less lines fitting a page after saving 
 and reopening. i think that is because it transfers the more precise 64-bit 
 numbers which the program itself uses to the less precise #.### format that 
 the odt document uses. moreover, i used to find after examining the odt's 
 content.xml that what i type in as, eg, 1.25 cm tab-stop position is 
 conveerted to, eg, 1.251 cm by some malfunctional rounding procedure.
 

Also, if one right clicks on a picture and selects Picture from the popup, on 
the Wrap tab there are settings for spacing above, left, right and below. Check 
that there is no unnecessary spacing set either above or below, as these will 
control the displayed white space above or below.

Re: Blank extra-pages

[Pietro Moras]

Thanks for your answers. Now, please, consider:   – Here my intention was to be 
as concise as possible, and just verify if these random blank extra-pages 
around .jpg images was already a well known issue, or not. 
“  there may be some legitimate causes … ”I'm well aware of them. Not 
only, but I've already “discovered” some effective work-arounds, so to overcome 
the problem. But, indeed, still work-arounds, not a solution. “  … and some 
bug-related causes. […] i have also experienced the random addition of the 
pages. they are cured by … ” 
 – I could be very detailed and specific about this issue, and offer sound 
“.odt” file examples of this behavior. But, frankly, I feared it would be 
rather tedious a reading. – As said, my aim was simply that of verifying if, 
just offering a few hints about this issue, it was already a well known one, 
and possibly taken care of. 
Again, I've appreciated the answers here received, and I'd be pleased to be of 
further help to possibly develop a real solution. Yours, - P.M.

Printing two sided pages from Open Office on my HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer

[David Wendt]

My HP Officejet 6500 printer has the capability of printing two sided 
pages; but (unlike when I used MS Office) I can't find how to do this 
when I use OpenOffice 4.1.0.  I am running Windows 7.  I've tried Open 
Office Help and it says I need to add Java RTE to do this.  Norton says 
this is a dangerous download and I'm not even sure it is the right one.  
Is there any other way I can get Open Office to let me do this when I 
choose Print in Open Office?

Double side printing is a printer setting.

Final release is expected in April. You can download a test build here 
(of course, it has -other- known bugs and it is meant for testing only; 
this is not even approved as a beta yet):

http://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/milestones/4.1.0-beta/binaries/en-US/

Hi Gary,

No.  It's a dropdown, so it shows up once the menu is clicked;
then an OK to dismiss the whole dialog,
then a Print to actually set the process in motion from the main
print dialog.

Wish I could at least figure out whether it was the driver or AOO,
as it was working a few weeks ago.  Unfortunately, I don't have another
printer that has duplex capability.  I suspect it's the driver, but
I'll be danged if I can figure out what's wrong with it.



Isn't there a setting in the driver or in the operating system to print 
raw data?


Kind regards
Regina

No.  The only thing that looks like it could be raw output is the choice
in the properties subdialog of the print dialog called 
Printer Language Type which allows selection of pdf (the default) and
several levels of postscript, one of which is labelled from driver which
I assume means use the driver says it likes ps.

How does OO do printing?  Does it produce a pdf and then hand that off?
If so, then presumably the print to file option for pdf is the exact 
output that would be fed to the print mechanism?  When sending to the
printer I have the option of different varieties of postscript as well
as pdf (default), but print to file only shows pdf so I assume that's
what oo produces?

If I print to file and generate a pdf, it looks ok, but of course it is
page-by-page without any duplexing operating.

It is behaving as if there is a 
  %%Requirements: duplex (tumble)
command in the postscript file.
I suspect the problem is in the print system, not oo, but it would be nice
to get the output from OO right before it goes to the print mechanism, and
then also know what the cmd is that it's using to send to the print spooler.

Thanks for any insights,

Gary
