            Bug ID: 140559
           Summary: FILEOPEN DOCX page layout "Bookfold" needs "mirrored"
                    in LibreOffice
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Testfile for brochure

Open attached document. It has a page layout "Bookfold" in MS Word. To make the
problem better visible, the inner margin is set to 3cm and the outer margin is
set to 1cm. The page size in Word is set to DIN A4 landscape. So you will get a
DIN A5 brochure when printed. In contrast to LibreOffice, Word builds DIN A5
pages automatically. In the Print View in Word you see the alternating margins
for even and odd pages.

The opened file in LibreOffice has correctly DIN A5, as needed for LibreOffice,
but the margins are not mirrored on even pages.

[To get the correct printing for a brochure you need not only set "Brochure",
but you need to set page size to DIN A4 and orientation to 'landscape' in the
'Printer properties'. Automatic detection does not work initially.]
