Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: some text not printing

George,

This may not be at all helpful, as I am by no means an LO expert, but I have 
a couple ideas...

1. Have you tried saving it to a PDF file? I was once getting strange 
printing behavior when I used LO with the Linux Libertine font, but if I 
saved it to a PDF file first, my output showed up properly.

2.  Also, when I get strange behavior in a formatted document, as a last 
resort, I'll save it as a straight text (.txt) file with all formatting 
stripped. I can then test it to see if it will print properly. If so, I can 
then rebuild the formatting. It's a pain, yes, but it's better than retyping 
the whole document. (But, as a caution, saving as a .txt file will also 
strip your footnotes)

Harold,
    Thanks for your reply.
    When I copied & pasted the page in question, the result was
unchanged; all was visible on-screen, but the 2 last paragraphs did not
print. In those 2 paragraphs, I am unable to find any setting which
would account for their 'going invisible'...
    As to the Help "changes">"review function" -- that does not seem to
have any join to what my problem is, in fact it only refers to spreadsheets.
    I see that you are in London -- not that that, or where my dad's
family comes from has a thing to do with anything, but I'll toss it in
anyway; my dad's father was from the village of Arnold in
Nottinghamshire UK & came to the USA on the Lucitania (sister ship to
the ill-fated Lusitania), on its last voyage across the Atlantic before
WWI. I had an Uncle Harry Noone, from Notts, who was a Crown Chauffeur
[I may have the term wrong, but he drove for the Government], had been
Master of two different Masonic Lodges there, and spent his final days
as a resident of the Masonic Home in York
    Any way, thanks for your attempts to help - small world & seemingly
smaller, daily & if we are not helping one another, thing would really
look bleak.
George
