Description: MacBook Pro (2020) running OS Sonoma 14.6.1 Epson XP-960 printer LibreOffice 24.2.5.2 I have a Writer document consisting of four A5 portrait pages, and I wish to print it out as a brochure on two sides of an A4 sheet. The printer is loaded with A4 paper In the print dialog I selected double sided "On (Short Edge) Under the LibreOffice heading I selected “Brochure” Under the Paper Handling heading I toggled “Scale to Fit to Paper Size” to ‘On’, selected the “Destination Paper Size” to be “A4 Borderless”, and made sure that “Scale Down Only” was not selected. However, when I print the document it comes out as an A5 size printout in the middle of an A4 sheet. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create A5 document of 4 or more pages 2.Select 'Print' 3.In the 'LibreOffice' pane select brochure 4.Under 'Double-sided' select 'On (Short Edge)' 5.Under 'Paper Handling' select 'Scale to Fit Paper Size' and under 'Destination Paper Size' choose 'A4' or 'A4 Borderless' 6. Click 'Print' Actual Results: The printer prints a double sided brochure with the print occupying A5 size space centred on the A4 paper. Expected Results: The printer should prints a double sided brochure with the print occupying the whole of the A4 paper. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 24.2.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build: bffef4ea93e59bebbeaf7f431bb02b1a39ee8a59 Environment: CPU threads: 8; OS: macOS 14.6.1 User Interface: UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: osx Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI: en-US Misc: Calc: threaded If instead of printing the document straight from the print dialog I choose “Open in Preview” from the PDF dropdown menu at the bottom of the Print dialog, the document opens in its brochure layout correctly in Preview, and can be printed from there by choosing a scale factor of 141% and then selecting 'Print' I am also finding that when I have printed using steps 1 to 6 above when I return to LibreOffice it has frozen and I have to Force Quit and relaunch

Thanks @James Unfortunately, I'm away from my office at the moment, so can't test, but will do so when I get back.
Created attachment 196662 [details] Printed output from RWTS "print to PDF" printer I cannot reproduce this bug. I followed the same steps except for one thing: I don't have any double-sided options for my printer in the native print dialog but that is probably due to the fact that I am using the following "print to PDF" printer: https://github.com/rodyager/RWTS-PDFwriter/releases
