GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 631570
Manual page breaks switched between rows and columns.
Last modified: 2010-10-07 05:56:49 UTC
In OOo create a file with a manual page break between columns 3 and 4. and numbers 1,2,...,10 in row 1 and column 1 import into Gnumeric print preview. the manual page break is between rows 3 and 4. THe problem may be in the import or in the printing part. It is not clear in print-info.c whether breaks.h breaks between rows (ie. the break itself is horizontal) or between columns (ie. it breaks the horizontal flow of the document.) Since we are also importing manual pagebreaks from xls we need to figure out which one is appropriate.
Created attachment 171874 [details] XLS file with page break inserted between columns C and D 1,2,3,4 in A1,B1,C1,D1 and page break after column C.
When importing these page breaks from excel they also show in our preview as a break between rows 3 and 4, so the printing part is switched.
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
