Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 4678
Prints too many pages in a multi-sheet document
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:55:29 UTC
Lets consider a mult-sheet speadsheet, with 5 sheets. Every sheet has that much content that it prints on 2 pages. This gives a total of 10 pages if the entire book is printed. I export this file to Excel97/2000/XP format and want to print one sheet (e.g. sheet #4) from Excel 97. If in Excel I select sheet #4 and print with all the standard settings (especially "Print range/All"), then the printout will indeed contain 10 pages. The first two pages are those of sheet #4. The remaining 8 pages are empty, possibly including Header and Footer. This is not standard Excel behavior, I would expected to get a 2 page printout only... I expect this has something to do with the fact that in OOo Calc the default is to print the entire book. There is the "Print range/Selection" option in the Print dialog box to print the selected sheet only, however, during the export to Excel format, the default printing behaviour of OOo Calc is somehow transfered into the content of each sheet?!

Hi Alexander, it's a double to #2330 So I set the flags. Frank *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 2330 ***
