When reading the description it seems to be a problem of printing a PDF document. You exported the file to PDF. You opened the file in a PDF-viewer. It is shown right in PDF-viewer. It is printed wrong in PDF-viewer? An example as attachment is needed here. Without it looks like it isn't a LO problem but a problem of the printing with PDF viewer. There is a distinct possibility I don't totally understand what is happening. I have been generating a PDF from a 5 page calc ODS file. Until recently, I created the spreadsheet of 5 pages, using Libre Office and then exported it as a PDF from within LO which I sent to a number of people. Since around the beginning of March this year, I heard back from some receiving the document that they could not print it, it was very small and unreadable. I noticed when I looked at the pdf, it seemed ok to me until I tried to print it. In the print preview, the page breaks were gone and instead of 5 pages, there was now only one and it scrolled off the page. I looked at re installing and printing in different ways. I opened an old ods file, exported it as a pdf (which I had done previously) and the print preview created one page. This was done previously and worked fine. I recently used an on line conversion site and sent the ODS file there and had it sent back as a PDF and printed 5 pages ok. For some reason, it appears the page breaks are removed when I export the ODS in LO starting around early March, creating an unreadable printed document. Thanks for the speedy response!!! Richard Maybe the option in Menu/File/Export as PDF — Structure — Whole sheet export, is enabled. https://help.libreoffice.org/24.8/en-US/text/shared/01/ref_pdf_export_general.html?System=WIN&DbPAR=CALC&HID=filter/ui/pdfgeneralpage/PdfGeneralPage#:~:text=of%20the%20margins.-,whole%20sheet%20export,-Ignores%20each%20sheet I got your email with the option "Export as whole sheet" and that was set. Unset it and I am now back to where I wanted to be Thank you very much. I am adding this to my previous reply and hope it works. |
