Sirs: I was printing a table (that's probably unimportant) on a Canon
printer. I noticed that there was no Page Setup (like in Word) on the
FILE dropdown menu. I wanted to print in Portrait mode but somehow the
file had decided it would print in Landscape mode. I could not find
any way to change to Portrait. So I went to the Printer driver and
used the Page Setup tab there. It was already set to Portrait. Nothing
I could do would allow me to switch to an actual Portrait mode.
Ultimately I gave up and had to print in Landscape.
As above I was working with a calendar table I had downloaded. The
cells came in with a certain size. I was easily able to narrow the
table as desired, using the Table Properties menu. Yet for some
inexplicable reason, I could not alter the length of the cells in the
same way. I am used to printing from Word, where the Table menu does
indeed have a tabbed setting for row sizes. Ultimately I gave up and
had to manually move the horizontal borders of each cell by dragging
them.
Unless I am missing something, these both appear to me to be bugs
(omissions). Other than that the program looks great, but it is
disturbing that these were about the first two things I tried to do
with the new OO2.2 and I had a problem with each of them.

The 'File' menu is the wrong position for the 'Page Setup' item that
you're after. It's under the 'Format' menu, where it should be.
'Format/Page.../Page' is what he is looking for.
The proper place for this function is debatable. M$ Word, Wordperfect, Photoshop,
Thunderbird, Firefox, Note Tab Light, Opera all have this function in the 'File' menu so
this is the natural place for someone new to OO.o to look for it.
