For the past year i enjoyed doing editing in LibreWriter 6.4.7 with a pale blue background by opening page format and choosing the color in the area tab; that was my default style. Then i went to tools>options>writer>print> and unchecked the box Page Background. Then when i opened the print dialogue box, the color was gone and did not print.
A month ago i needed to do a windows reset, and when i installed LibreOffice i got the 7.1.0 version. I did all the same as described above, but now the blue background appears in the print preview and prints. Nothing i could do changed this. So today i uninstalled the new version and reinstalled the earlier version, but same problem; i cannot get the background color to not print unless i remove it in the page format area tab.
Can anyone tell me if there is any way to get it to work again? THANK YOU so much for any help you can offer. --dan menkin
MY MISTAKE: i should have set the color in Tools>Options> LibreOffice> Application Colors>Document Background Color. Doing it this way no color on printing.
