Description svenl 2003-11-10 19:58:19 UTC
Hi!

I think it was good to have a option to set the default pagesize for the
printingdialog in the options for the printing, too.
For example I use and whant use the english version of openoffice but I whant to
change the default size of the paper to pring in the printingdialog.
I know at the moment we set that with the english and german version, but we
don't have a option to change the default in the englisch version for example to
the german defaults.
I hope we can integrate that!   :)

By,
  Sven

cp->mmp: you can already change the defaults in spadmin. Moving
spadmin functionality into the office is highly desirable IMHO since
very few users ever find the spadmin application

So we can change this feature request to move it from spadmin into 
the optiondialog from the office itself.   :) 
Thanks for the answer where I can find the option in the existing 
version.

I think there should also be a way (or at least an easier way, because I can't
find it) to set the default page size for my new documents. I don't think I has
anything to do with spadmin. It is rather a page style issue.

Please forgive me if it is the inappropriate place for this comment.

Come on people!! this thing with default page size should be pretty simple to
add.. i swear any time i open a new document!! (and i think any european is
cursing and swearing just because the default is letter and not A4! )

alternatively ooffice can just read /etc/papersize ... 

is this feature so hard to implement?

Thanks!
