            Bug ID: 131405
           Summary: On labels, the horizontal pitch is set by the Width
                    parameter, not the Horizontal Pitch parameter
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.5.4 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: rhkramer at gmail.com

Aside: AFAICT, this is not a duplicate of any other bug.

When setting up the parameters for a label (specifically Avery 5160, but it is
a general problem), the Horizontal Pitch parameter does not establish the
horizontal pitch (of multiple labels across the page).  Instead, the Width
parameter sets the horizontal pitch.

This is not as it should be and causes problems.

I did try to set the Width to the required horizontal pitch (2.75") which did
establish the horizontal pitch (my workaround), and thought that maybe the two
parameters were reversed, so I tried to set the Horizontal Pitch to 2.5" (which
is the correct width of the labels), but that apparently is not the case. 
Well, I'm not 100% sure because there is apparently code that prevents the
Horizontal Pitch to be set to a value less than the Width (which makes sense /
is appropriate), but I could not test the hypotheses that the two parameters
were reversed.
