PS - along the same lines of this same problem: It seems OO.o will not
display pages at anything less than 20% size. If I could get it down to 10%
or 5% so all pages showed onscreen at once, I might be able to manually drag
pages around to reorder them if no one has any better suggestions.
Is there any way to get down to 10% or 5% for page display size?
TIA,

Hi,
I'm not sure this can be done, but ... going to ask anyway. XP Pro
SP3 and Office 2002 and OO.o 3.1.1.
I am hoping to use Writer to accomplish the following in OO.o instead
of Word?
Is there a way to reverse the order of pages in a Word document? Last
page becomes first, next to last becomes next, and so on. Instead of
1, 2, 3, ... the physical appearance changes to 42, 41, 40 ... 3, 2,
1.
I have a Word document which is displayed backwards: In other words,
the LAST page is actually page 1, next to last is page 2, and so on
up to the first page, which is page currently page 42, but displays
at the top of the screen display.
This is meant to be an onscreen reference, so printing in reverse
order won't suffice; access is going to be onscreen. It's also hell
to edit a document with reversed pages<g>!
I made some brief tests as simply cutting/pasting the pages into
their correct order but quickly got lost and botched the job; mainly
because as soon as you move a page, its page number changes in Word,
so without making each page large enough to see and comparing
next/following pages, one gets lost pretty quickly. Thought about a
macro, move bottom to position 1, bottom to position 2, etc, but I'm
not able to get anything to work. I just don't know VBA well enough.
It's an almost-all text document, with only the first and last pages
as graphic, so graphics don't worry me. Getting to read in the
correct order does though. Since it came from a scanner that saved
to Word format, it's also full of Word's Section Breaks, none of
which are necessary. There is only one page needs to be landscape, so
that doesn't worry me either.
I tried opening the .RTF version of the file in OO.o 3.1.1 and it
looks perfect, except of course the pages are all backwards ordered.
Any thoughts or ideas on how to accomplish this with OO.o?
TIA,
Twayne
