Since I haven't seen any responses, and this is somewhat urgent, I'm
submitting it again:
I have a 2 page mail merge letter, 1st page needs 1.5" left margin while
the second page needs a 1" left margin. I can't get it to work
correctly. I type the letter, then at the natural page break of the
letter, I enter a manual page break, put cursor on the next page, then
choose Format->Page and set the margins appropriately. This changes all
pages in the document including the first page, despite the Help topic's
statement that this way should work.
I've also tried defining page styles with the two different margin
settings and applying them to each page, but even if I have a manual
break between the pages, it applies whichever style I choose to the
entire document.
Lastly, as an aside, on a 2 page document, if I add a page break to the
end of the first page before the natural break, OOo adds a whole blank
page to the document before continuing on with p.2 of the text. The
behavior is the same if I insert the page break at the beginning of the
first line of the second page - I get the blank page.
How can I do what I'm trying to do?
Thanks,
Carl
OK, new development. I was able to get the document to use two
different left margins by inserting a manual break that incorporated the
second page style that had a different left margin than the first, but
that's the only way I could get it to work. Is this intentional or a
potential bug?
Second, when I try to mailmerge that letter, the resulting mail merge
loses the second page style and reverts to the larger 1st page margin.
This seems like a bug. Any knowledge of this as a bug? What to do
about it?
Carl
