I have entered my special page size - for a book, smaller than A5 - in Format>Page>Page fields of LO writer.
Now I want to print two of those pages, as they appear in the book, on one A4 print paper (A5 is half the size of A4, so two pages smaller than A5 would easily fit on A4).
Problem is, LO plus the print driver (Samsung laser) try to be extra-clever in choosing a size reduction that I do not want:
- Printing a single page produces a 100% size as desired
- Printing two ‘Pages per sheet’ via the ‘Page Layout’ Print Dialog im LO > reduces the size to 71%
- Same happens when I set the ‘Pages per sheet’ to 1 in LO and the ‘Multiple pages per side’ to 2 in the Printer properties
- Using both paths reduces the printed size to 50%
It seems the print driver reads the ‘paper size’ from LO and reports the closest fitting paper size back to LO.
Chicken-egg-problem.
Any solution?
