Hello!
In that case, I think there should be an enhancement request, e.g. Page 1 / 2 1 / 3 Page 2 / 2 3 / 3 The page count should display both cases. This will certainly be less confusing. At present, the page count is: Page 1 / 3 Page 1 3 / 3 I agree that the PDF option "Export automatically inserted blank pages" makes the three pages. Regards, C. H.

What I am saying is that everything you see is by design, and will not be seen as a bug: Writer still sees three pages, even if you choose to print only two of these. > Consider File -> Export as PDF.

The PDF Options dialogue, which you see when you use File | Export as PDF..., has, at the foot of the General tab, a separate "Export automatically inserted blank pages" tick box. Yours must currently be unticked. Writer thinks that if you print that exported PDF document double-sided, you will need that extra page - to ensure that your second significant page prints on the front of the second sheet, not on the reverse of the first. I suppose that there is no simple answer to this which takes account of both single- and double-sided printing in an intuitive fashion. But there's no bug, I think.
