Hi Jeff,

I'm responding to the list as I think you probably wanted to answer 
there and share comments there.

Thank you, Marc,

There was no difference in the output. Each choice produced a perfect 
PDF replica of the ODT file but Adobe Reader imposes wider margins when 
it prints to a hard copy.

If I could get LO to print in the right orientation when I ask it to 
print a booklet I wouldn't need to mess around with PDF format

============

I tried to print a series of test pages (8 pages in length) and then 
sent to print with the "brochure" choice tagged. As you pointed out I 
got the same results as you described in your original post. HOWEVER, I 
then reprinted a second time and for some reason the print went 
according to what I would expect and the booklet was printed without a 
problem.

I tried to replicate this again, but I could not do it. I tried 
different settings, but again, could not reproduce it.

One explanation could be that the LibreOffice profile may have something 
to do with this (maybe erasing it or forcing a new one by re-labelling 
your profile with another name). I am not sure.

BTW ... I installed the v.4.0.2.1 build of LibreOffice as I am also 
testing it for bugs. This is the version I test tried my file. I am not 
sure if this would correct the problem.

Cheers,

Marc
