Created attachment 115205 [details] Layout of pages for brochure printing Hello, When printing with brochure layout, Writer adds blank pages when it should not. This is with a document that has a First page (page style), followed by a page style of "Default Style" which has alternate footer style (unchecked same content left/right). The inserted three blank pages are between the first page and the second page. I've uploaded a sample document. Thank you for developing Libreoffice. All the best, Shem Pasamba
Reproduced with PDF printing. Win 7 Pro 64-bit Version: 5.0.0.0.alpha1+ (x64) Build ID: f0edb677f09ad338e22ac3b5d91497b4479e0b3c TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2015-04-27_01:54:20 Locale: fi_FI
I didn't reproduced it like described. I got 6 pages, 1 blank after 1st page. Please attach the PDF you get from Print to PDF.
(In reply to Timur from comment #2) Yes, it really produced 6 pages, were it should have been 5 pages in the output. The "3" extra pages that I mentioned translates to 1.5 extra pages in the output.
Created attachment 124068 [details] Sample output with 1.5 extra pages.
There' sth. strange with this file, it has manual breaks. How was it created? When you report a bug, it should be clear whether a problem can be recreated from scratch or it's related to some particular file. Brochure works if document is created with simple page breaks, just using First Page for the 1st page and Default Style that's switched on automatically.
Here's a video of how I created it: https://youtu.be/MEb5mJB9_74 I think you need to add up to 7 pages to make the bug show up.
Yes, I know how you created it, with manual breaks. But, it doesn't matter, I confirm this but only with more pages, 5, it was OK with 3. Same happens without changing page number. Looks like inherited from OO. Note for readers: use File-Print-Page Layout-Brochure.
What about the setting : Tools > Options > Writer > Pint .. Automatically insert blank pages ??
Tools > Options > Writer > Print .. Automatically insert blank pages checked or unchecked still produces this bug.
No changes in 6.3+ with new print dialog.
