At least with MacOS 10.6.8, which I still use, there is no 'Print' option in
the context menu which appears when I control-click (= right-click) on any
LibreOffice file in the Finder (the Finder is the MacOS equivalent to the
Windows Explorer).

But there is a 'Print' item in the Finder's global 'File' menu. This 'Print'
item is enabled as soon as you select one or more document(s) in the Finder, so
I would expect this menu item to do exactly what the 'Print' option in the
context menu does on Windows. But if I select one ore more .odt document(s) in
the Finder and select 'Print' from the 'File' menu, the only thing that happens
is that LibreOffice comes to the front (if it is running) or is started (if it
isn't running). No file is opened, no Print dialog appears, regardless whether
I select 1 or 2 or 3 ... .odt file(s).

With other applications, this 'Print' command from the Finder works fine, so I
suspect that there is just another LibreOffice bug, but Mac-specific: the print
event sent from the Finder (or the OS?) to LibreOffice is not handled at all.

IMHO this is a separate issue. Maybe I should open another bug report for it
... will search if there is already a report for this issue.
