Re: [libreoffice-users] Fw: Potential bug printing blank Writer tables

Ok, is printing a hard copy necessary or is generating a PDF file 
sufficient?  I created a table, in Writer, with 10 columns and 20 rows.  
I edited the first cell in each row and pressed "Enter" to double the 
height of the row.  When I reached row 20, I saw I had space at the 
bottom of the page so I added another row and updated the first cell by 
pressing "Enter".

When I generated a print preview, nothing appeared on the page! Then, I 
realized I had to enable borders.  :)   After doing that, the print 
preview showed a grid on the page.  I then generated a PDF file and the 
grid was preserved and looked good.  This is using Writer 7.5.2.2 on 
Manjaro (22, I think...the latest version) KDE Linux.

I don't have a printer connected to this system and the system with a 
printer attached has Writer 7.3.7 installed.  If you're interested in 
seeing the document and PDF file I generated, I can send both to you 
privately.  I didn't enter any text of any kind, just added the table.

Peace...
