Win XPHome, OOo 2.0.2
I am creating a mail merge to address envelopes. I create an envelope
document, select a data source, place merge fields on the document, add
Hidden Paragraphs as needed, then run the merge. While the starting
document and the resulting merged document show one envelope "page" per
record, the page number display skips every other page (so when looking
at first page, it shows page 1, but when scrolling to the next visible
envelope "page" it shows page 3). Neither standard nor page layout
views show the blank page. I've checked for non-printing characters but
all I see is paragraph markers.
What's going on, I think, is that the field names and Hidden Paragraph
functions take up so many lines that they spill onto a second "page"
when fields are viewed, even though none of the merged addresses do. So
every record (of some 220) takes up 2 "pages" even though the merged
data doesn't.
Is this a bug, or is something else amiss? I've checked issue tracker
and not found anything like this. Haven't checked archives as I'm on
dialup.
Thanks,
Carl
