Description Tiiti Kellomaki 2013-08-20 09:46:55 UTC
I have an Impress presentation with 10 slides. Handout master contains "<number>/<count>" (Page number / Page count) which is supposed to give page numbering on the handouts: 1/2, 2/2. Works fine so far. I'm using 6 slides per page on the handout.

When I hide slides 1-5 and print a handout (or select "Range and copies" -> "Slides 6-10" in the Print dialog), I expect to have one page of handout, thus numbered 1/1. Instead, I'm getting one page numbered 1/2. So the <count> is calculating the hidden (or not selected) slides though they will not be printed. Seems to work equally with 1 or 4 slides per handout.

Please either change the <count> to include only the slides to be printed, or change its name to "Total page count" instead of "Page count". At least to me, "Page count" means "the number of paper sheets that will come out from the printer."

Hi

I reproduce on windows 7/64 & 4.3.0.0.beta1

Also reproduced with Version: 4.3.0.0.beta2
Build ID: a06aa316117a6ff0f05c697c82831c227812d810

I set status to New.

The fix for bug 74383 solved the problem of "page count" when hidden slides but as stated in the Bug 74383, comment 8 inconsistent with the page number persists

See the nbpage.odp attached
