Re: [libreoffice-users] Strange Page Setup/Printing Problem

We had enormous fun with printers that have lots of paper trays and sizesIt nearly drove me crazy 
printing in landscape when it should have beenportrait, using the wrong tray or just refusing to 
print in anything other than A4. The combination of wrong ways to do it seem endless ! In the end 
using only postscript drivers for everything solved it for us.
Have fun

I guess I wasn't clear, but yes, of course, I went to Page > Format and  
chose the appropriate setting (how else would I be able to confirm that  
BOTH Letter AND Legal work as expected?)... 
 
And yes, I have tried changing BOTH Page > Format AND File > Printer  
Settings right after creating a new doc. Same bizarre results. Oh - and  
changing File > Printer Settings is NOT required when changing between  
Letter and Legal sizes. 
 
But thanks for trying... :)
