Thank you, Marc,

There was no difference in the output. Each choice produced a perfect PDF 
replica of
the ODT file but Adobe Reader imposes wider margins when it prints to a hard 
copy.

If I could get LO to print in the right orientation when I ask it to print a 
booklet
I wouldn't need to mess around with PDF format

============

I tried to print a series of test pages (8 pages in length) and then sent to 
print
with the "brochure" choice tagged. As you pointed out I got the same results as 
you
described in your original post. HOWEVER, I then reprinted a second time and 
for some
reason the print went according to what I would expect and the booklet was 
printed
without a problem.

I tried to replicate this again, but I could not do it. I tried different 
settings,
but again, could not reproduce it.

One explanation could be that the LibreOffice profile may have something to do 
with
this (maybe erasing it or forcing a new one by re-labelling your profile with 
another
name). I am not sure.

BTW ... I installed the v.4.0.2.1 build of LibreOffice as I am also testing it 
for
bugs. This is the version I test tried my file. I am not sure if this would 
correct
the problem.

Cheers,

Marc

Marc,

Thank you for your suggestions. I've had no success.
What is the LibreOffice profile and what is its function?

I haven't found a way to change the margins when printing a booklet in acroread. The default margins are bigger than I want.

At the rate I am going I might remove 4.0.1.2 and revert to 3.5 - but that would be to admit defeat :-)


Cheers,

Jeff
