Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 72668
different Printing-Properties for Objects PDF / Printing
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:34:00 UTC
When establishing OpenOffice.org for business use, the direct PDF export is one of the primary advantages. But in practical use one feature is missing: different properties for (special grafics-) objects for real print (via Printer) and PDF-Export. Background: When writing a letter and sending it out via PDF-Export, you will include Logos and sender-address, typical placed in a seperat Textbox (frame). If you want to print the same letter using your PC-printer, then normaly preprinted paper is used, so logos and/or sender-address (this spezial frame) should not be printed. OK, actuell you can change the printing-property of each element, but this ist - when using different objects - not a real choise. A real advantage here should be a second property-value for objects (grafics, frames,...), which spezifies printing on a printer (as it is now) and visible (or printing) on PDF-Export. Then you can use different adjustments for objects depending if using PDF-Export (sending via e-mail) or printing and sending via "normal" mail.
Reassigned to requirements.
