--- Comment #5 from business_kid at linuxmail.org ---
In direct reply to comment Regina's Comment #2, No. Libreoffice over-rides the
cups settings normally. What that does is rely on the cups settings. I could go
into cups, try setting 193mm x 114mm, and see, but don't see the point when we
are discussing a LibreOffice bug. I might uncover more bugs, but they would be
cups bugs. The work is out the door, so I don't need a workaround. The
workaround was to set a page sixe of 193mm x 193mm after writing but before
printing.

With the 'page size from Printer, I have a page size of A4 by default in cups,
and a size of 193mm x 114mm on the document. When it is asked to print, it
comes up with a portrait A4 size, and my address is landed in the middle of
this (non existent) A4 page.

The real problem is this: LO is presuming always that my print must run in
lines across the narrow side of a page. When I come along and want to run print
across the wide sides, it pukes. A page size of 1144mm x 193mm set to landscape
would probably also puke. There is no way to get LO to put print across the
wide side of a page. You may not want to fix this to protect twits from
themselves, but you may.

I'll leave this unconfirmed, but why doesn't one of you set up the page sizes;
You can print on any larger page regardless of size. Then you can confirm it or
set it to NOTABUG and we can all go away.
