Description granier 2014-12-13 15:18:06 UTC
Since Libreoffice 4.2, with Linux nor Windows version, the parameters in dialogbox for printing aren't efficients : multipage printing will only print the first one for example. and resizing to printer size doesn't work at all.
It's blocking anyone who wants to print big pages on A4 size.

Could you give a try to last stable LO version 4.3.4?
Comment 2 granier 2014-12-14 13:46:45 UTC
I reproduce the bug with the latest version of LibreOffice: Version: 4.3.4.1
Build ID: 430m0 (Build: 1)
Creation with Draw a document, setting page A1 format.
The Print dialog box no longer works correctly whether to print in a file or on my various printers when you check in LibreOffice Draw tab "accommodate Printable Version" it does not work. When you check "over several sheets of paper" either, only the first rest, so no effect.
This error persists by choosing from the option tab "use only the paper size according to the preferences of the printer"

Thank you for your feedback, I put it back to UNCONFIRMED since I don't have more questions.
Comment 4 Buovjaga 2014-12-16 11:54:50 UTC
I can confirm that with Adobe PDF printer having A4 as the page size and the option use "only paper size from printer preferences selected", the options "Fit to printable page" and "Distribute on multiple sheets of paper" don't fit to page, but crop the page.

Lowering severity a bit according to this: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/0/06/Prioritizing_Bugs_Flowchart.jpg

This function works fine in Apache OpenOffice 4.0.1 and AOO 4.1.1. But it do not work in my LibreOffice 4.2.8 nor LO 4.4.5...

Good news: It works again in the LO 5.0.2 portable version!

Thank you Tibor for the test with recent LO versions.
Since 4.4 branch is soon in EOL (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/4.4), let's consider this one as WFM.
