My 3rd option is "Use > only paper _tray_ from printer preferences". Hmmm... On my Windows (7 Pro, 64bit), with 5.1.5, tabloid size is called "11x17" (has been for a very long time), and choosing 'Use only paper size from printer prefs' doesn't work... Can anyone else on Windows test this and see if it works for you? I tried so many things a long time ago trying to work around this, maybe something I did is now getting in my way? -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org 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
