What I've done when print drivers wouldn't co-operate in brochure
production was to format the page for the larger paper size, but with
two columns. Insert a manual page break at the end of the first of each
pair of pages. You can then export as pdf and all will be right with the
non-geek printer.

I've just been hit by a bit of a conundrum.
I have a document, formatted as A5 pages, and which will be printed on
A4 paper as a brochure. No problem there; works nicely.
But I need to send it to a non-OOo user for copying. I had assumed I
could create an appropriate pdf (with the 2 x A5 correctly arranged on
the A4 page) for him to simply print, but it seems this isn't an
option. He's not a technical type, so I don't want to start messing
around with persuading Acrobat to print '2-up' (even assuming that
wouldn't wreck the formatting.) Likewise, there'd be a problem sending
a Word document, I assume, and he'd have to at least check any
formatting.
Short of printing it myself and driving over, I'm stuck. Any ideas
please?
Sounds like a good opportunity to drive over and introduce to OOo - take
a CD with you and intall OOo on this computer, problem solved :-)
