... if she has the print preview enabled and looks in that area. But why would
anyone want to press "OK" when they know that what they entered is invalid
anyway?

Just tested this. It looks like 3 already works, e.g. entering e.g. "-2"
selects pages 1 and 2 in a 20 page document.

If we don't reject invalid input, I'd say we should be doing *something* with
spaces in this case (or we just say that we always just don't print anything
when something like this is entered, but as as a user I'd be much less
surprised to get some kind of explicit information).</pre>
