Can someone advise me please. I received a MS Word document by e-mail. (When will they learn?) It converted OK to Neo (Beta Patch 6 installed) and I found it consisted of two sections, the first oriented portrait and the second landscape. When printed in reverse all the pages printed landscape. Is this a bug or do I have some settings wrong?

Further to my earlier post about a reverse printing bug, this happens with all printing. If there is a change in the middle of a document from portrait to landscape or vice versa the printing continues in the first mode and doesn't switch.

Any ideas anybody?
Well, I had a sneaking suspicion of this. You can always try to print sets of similarly aligned pages.
Put it in bugzilla if you want it fixed. _________________ "What do you think of Western Civilization?"

This isn't really anything to do with "reverse" printing, whatever that might be.
The issue is that NeoOffice/J, at least as of 1.1beta-patch[5-8], doesn't seem able to mix landscape and portrait mode in one document. All pages are printed (as well as PDF exported) either in landscape or portrait mode. I have seen this with native OOo spreadsheet documents and this is a serious hindrance for me to switch to NeoOffice/J from OOo.
OOo 1.1.2 handles landscape/portrait mixing without any problems, which is why this is an issue.
