I just installed 3.5.3 RC2 and it seems to work fine !!! I removed everything openSUSE LO related and installed RC2 from LO rather than the suse repos and I seem good to go now.
No doubt you will hear from me some more when I get stuck again but in the meantime many thanks to everyone :-) M _____ From: webmaster-Kracked_P_P [mailto:webmas...@krackedpress.com] To: users@global.libreoffice.org Sent: Tue, 01 May 2012 13:54:56 +0100 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Printer Dialogs Can you print out the document as a PDF file? When you then use your default PDF viewer, do you have the print options for those different paper options when printing using the PDF viewer? I cannot get LO to print a document in duplex mode, so I print/export the document to a PDF file and then use my PDF viewer to print it out duplex. That is my work-around. You might need to do something like that as well.
