Are you using /landscape/ A4 in the printer setup? If I forget, and use portrait A4, the desired pages are printed upright, 2-up, but squashed at the top of the output page (with the bottom part blank). I'm opening the 'options' dialogue on the print sheet, and asking for 'left pages', 'right pages' and 'brochure'. If you can describe what you get more exactly, someone may see a clue as to what's going on. Is this with an imported Word document, or does it happen for a "native" OOo document? -- Permission for this mail to be processed by any third party in connection with marketing or advertising purposes is hereby explicitly denied. http://www.scottsonline.org.uk lists incoming sites blocked because of spam [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mike Scott, Harlow, Essex, England --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
