Hi again,
I use LO under Linux (Debian-Wheezy as well as Mint-Nadia). There you can specify
PDF/Postscript and other printing destinations under "Device" in the printing
dialog. PDF is the default. Unfortunately things like landscape printing don't
work properly then. Setting it to Postscript Level 2 works fine, however. In older
versions I knew how to change that default in some config-file, but don't know how
to do so under LO 4.0-rc2 in Linux.
Regards
H.S.

I'll be damned - I don't know where to set "Device" in vista, but taking your
hint, instead of "Export as PDF" I chose "Export." With that I saw that the
file format was defaulted to .xml. I changed this to pdf, and lo! Though the
chosen foreground color doesn't show in the odt. file, it does show in the
pdf. The color toolbar is indeed buggy, no?

Hi,
Did you set the "Device" to PostScript? PDF printing is "buggy" in my
opinion.

I'm using  LO on Vistax64, printing on a Canon IP2600.

I can't change the paper size successfully when printing from LO. When
trying to print on half-sheets (5.5x8.5 stock), I can set the printer
settings OK, but when I click on Print the LO shows the requested text
printed at  the top left of a full 8.6x11 sheet; and
the printer's pre-print display follows that instead of the settings it
had
accepted from me..

(By exporting  the LO file to the PDF file I finally was able to print to
the half size sheets, but it require my setting the printer to "fit to
page
printing," which I didn't have to bother with in the last Oracle version.
OOo 3.2.0.)

The LO user guide was no help. Any advice would be appreciated.
