Probleme Marges de reliure

Lors de l'impression d'une partie d'un texte en "Reliure", les marges Interne/Externe sont inversées.

Il faudrait séparer la marge de reliure des marges gauches/droites.

A bientot.


When impress part of text on Page layout Mirrored, who beggin on a left page.
Format Margins Inner and Outer are inverted.

Repro.

Steps:
1. Input some dummy text for 2 or more pages.
2. Format - Page - Page - Page layout: Mirrored
3. Margins: Inner 0,50 cm, Outer 2,00 cm
4. Print - Page layout - Brochure

Observe that in the print preview the margin widths have flipped.

You can set all text to justified to get a more clear picture of the flippage.

So IMO this is just intended and proper behavior.
The Writer page style has the option to set if margins are mirrored or different left and right. And of course one can apply different styles for left and right pages. (And a whole bunch more features, but that's OT).

.. so this is by design,
