When I have exported a document to a pdf file the conversion using the default page such as A4, US Letter, etc. to paginate the document. Also, normally the pagination uses the default orientation (portrait or landscape). The issue is why are your using a pdf document and not using ods format or even another format for your documents. The pdf format is often used for file sharing when the recipient is expected to only view the results and not edit them. Also, which version of LO are you using and which OS are you using; it sounds like Linux? -- Jay Lozier [email protected] -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
