Trying to produce labels, but they don't fit the paper! I'm using the built-in L7163 address label format.
It's a bit complicated as I don't have a printer attached - I have to make a PDF document and print it on another machine. As "Export to PDF" just gives a sheet with the fields names on rather than the filled-in values, I use a PDF printer and am getting different (and wrong) PDFs from both OO and LO. Interestingly, the results are different between LO and OO, and also between the printers I use, so there seems to be a problem with the printer interface. With OO using CutePDF I get a US letter size document (8 by 11 inches), using Bullzip I get a document 20.8 by 28.2 cm (a bit smaller than A4). The pitches are also wrong. With LO I get the same from both printers: a correctly sized document. But the pitch is wrong: 9.2 by 3.6 cm instead of 9.9 by 3.8. How on earth can I get OO and/or LO to produce my labels? It's too late for my Xmas cards now - I've gone back to an ancient Lotus SmartSuite which works perfectly. But won't run on Windows 7 unfortunately. ----- Peter -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Trying-to-get-labels-to-fit-tp4024409.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
