Hello,
Seems I've found a new & especially annoying problem.
A document I've had on disk for several years & have printed
without problems before, has now come to the point where some
paragraphs do not print at all - although they appear on-screen OK & I
can find no formatting or other setting difference between the text
which prints & that which does not, except that one does & the other
does not print.
I really do not wish to have to completely re-enter the entire
document, all over again (& hope that whatever caused the non-print
problem does not occur again, anyway).
Does any one have any thoughts as to a possible cause -- I
will investigate all angles I'm able to do.
Thanks for your assistance.

Two thoughts: I think LO has some feature that lets you see hidden
features, like carriage returns, new paragraph
indicators, etc. I haven't used the feature, but I believe it's
there--like in WordPerfect. If so, turn it on, and look for
something strange around the paragraphs that don't print.
Second: If you have any printed copy (from back when it worked) scan it
in and use OCR to translate it back to
text. Then--you'll have to proof-read it, of course--enter it into some
word processor and print it from there.
Clumsy, but much better than typeing the whole thing over.
