How did you solve it?
Changing the printer setup in OOo either on Linux (Suse 9.2) or Windows (2000) with 1.1.5 or 1.9.130 does not effect the way in which my printer - a Samsung ML6060 - prints an OOo document. The only way I can get a single page within a document to print in landscape is to set a page style 'landscape' and apply it to the page after a manual page break. Perhaps your informants are comparing your setup with MS Word, where changing the printer setup sometimes changes the page layout from portrait to landscape. However, I find in Word this doesn't make any difference to the output - it still comes out portrait unless I also change the Page layout separately - similar to applying a different page style in OOo -- John [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
