[Ubuntu-translations-coordinators] [Bug 1379531] Re: "Combine sides" should be "combine pages"?
Hm that doesn't make sense, neither as a feature nor in terms of the UI string. As a feature it doesn't make sense because - should I want the pages in a different order - I can do that once it's a PDF. In terms of the UI string, if that's what it means, certainly the current wording would not make a user interpret it that way. I guess something like "Change output order" or something like that. But if that's what "Combine sides" means, what does "Combine sides (reverse)" mean? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Translations Coordinators, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Translations.

[Ubuntu-translations-coordinators] [Bug 1379531] Re: "Combine sides" should be "combine pages"?
My memory's a little fuzzy on the matter, so do excuse me if I'm about to write a load of nonsense, but I remember coming across this a few years ago, and in the end left it be for English UK for lack of certainty. At the time I remember considering the concept - Imagine you are scanning a document into a pdf with 6 A4 'sides' (3 sheets of paper) but they are numbered within like: frontpage, index, page 1, page 2, page 3 and page 4. On your 3rd sheet of paper, page 4 (of the work) is actually on side 6. Without digging into it back then, I presumed the strings were intentionally written in as they were to account for the non- interchangeablity between the three terms. Each sheet is made up of a front side and a back side of course, and you may find yourself wishing to combine different sides (e.g. sides 3-6 inclusive in the example above contain the actually information, which is equivalent to asking for 'pages 1 - 4'?) Alternatively, whether 'page' was used to mean 'sheet' instead, I can't recall. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Translations Coordinators, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Translations.

What is the actual outcome of "combine sides", is this a print related thing to print side by side or what? I'm still struggling to figure out what this actually does. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Translations Coordinators, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Translations.

When searching for "side" in launchpad translations it appears that the author by "sides" means "front/back side". Simply replacing sides by pages does not seem to be the best wording, either, IMO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Translations Coordinators, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Translations.
