I have made a single page letter using mail merge. If I print it out

How do I get rid of these blank pages? This is in Openoffice.org 2.4
on Debian. Same results on OOo 2.3 on Debian as well.
Go to Tools | Options... | OpenOffice.org Writer | Print | Other and
remove the tick from "Print automatically inserted blank pages". Does
that help?
No, it didn't do the trick.
If you are actually printing (or using a virtual printer), you can reach
the same settings on the fly from the Options... button in the print
When I do "Print ...", it just informs me that I am printing a form
letter etc. There is no Option button anywhere in the procedure after
that (Print -> Select records -> Print to File -> choose the output
filename and format).
dialogue. If you are exporting as PDF, use File | Export as PDF...
instead of the Export Directly as PDF button, and then, in the PDF
Options dialogue, go to General | General and remove the tick from
"Export automatically inserted blank pages".
This does not work with Mail Merge. It just prints the document with the
fields shown. The fields are not replaced with information from the
database.

I trust this helps.
