Description Oliver Brinzing 2003-12-16 17:05:50 UTC 
Hi,

I have a problem with the PrinterIndependendLayout:

open a *new* writer document with SO 70, type some words and save
as *.sxw file (the option "Use printer metrics for document formatting"
is unchecked)

After reloading, the "Use printer metrics for document formatting"
in Tools -> Text Document -> General is always checked ...

Open the same document in OO 1.1.0 (645m18) ... the box is unchecked ...

Do I have a configuration problem or is it a bug ???

regards

Oliver


from the online help:

> "Use printer metrics for document formatting"
> Specifies that printer metrics are applied for printing and also

I saved file with unchecked metric, reload it, close and opened it -> it still
unchecked.

The properties of using printer metrics will not saved in any configuration
file. It is a property of the document and will be saved with the document.
If you have a document where you can reproduce the problem, please attach it as
bugdoc so I can see what's going on.
Please keep this place for the communication and do not send email's.

I used the demo and compared with soffice7 and OOo1.1
The printer metric is not checked in both versions.

Hi,

meanwhile I know what happend:

I have the following entry in the "common.xcu":

<node oor:name="Load">
 <prop oor:name="UserDefinedSettings" oor:type="xs:boolean">
  <value>false</value>
 </prop>
</node>

this affects, that the user props of the document 
are *not* loaded with the document ... 

In this case (after opening a writer document) the 
"use printer metrics document formating" are *always*
enabled ...

What is strange is, that the "UserDefinedSettings"
seems not to affect the equivalent calc prop 
"use printer metrics document formating" ... in
the calc area ...

regards

Oliver

Please have a look.
Comment 7 frank 2004-03-16 15:00:39 UTC 
This is because Calc does not store this setting in the document.
