Package: openoffice.org-writer
Version: 1:2.4.1+dfsg-1
Severity: important


Printing duplex on a printer without automatic duplex is a nightmare if
one wants to print from writer.


The most annoying and broken thing wrt to printing is that even if I
select to print pages 5,3,1* (in that order), writer reorders them and
prints them in 1,3,5 order making impossible to print large documents on
both sides.


Also, since manual duplexing is needed on many printers, this should be
directly supported (print odd pages/print even pages) and should be
possible even for a part of a document (e.g. duplex printing of pages 14
to 117 in a document of 200 pages).



So, to consider this bug fixed, OOo-writer should at least NOT reorder
the selected pages and should print them in the exact order they were given.

To consider the duplexing issue fixed, proper odd/even + full or part of
document printing support should be added.




* You can imagine that I discovered this reordering bug while trying to
pair the even pages of a document with the already printed odd pages and
ended up having page 2 on the back of 17, 4 on the back of 15, and so
on, although I listed the pages in reverse order exactly to counter this
outcome (since the stack of pages was with the lower numbered pages at
the bottom after the first side printing).
