--- Comment #7 from Regina Henschel <rb.henschel at t-online.de> ---
'Even pages' and 'Odd pages' is no alternative to 'Pages' and 'Selection'. But
it is used parallel in case of manual duplex. Please compare with print dialog
in Acrobat Reader.

Many print dialogs have an option 'current page'. It is missing here.

The field 'Pages:' needs an information, which delimiter is allowed. It might
be comma, semicolon or both. Where is this information given?

In case of mixed orientated content (e.g. envelop + Din A4 portrait letter +
Din A4 landscape table appendix), who is responsible for selecting the
orientation and the paper tray. Making a brochure has the same problem of
responsibility. How can the dialog help the user to make the suitable settings
for his specific printer?

What items are contained in field 'Paper size'? What selection is correct for
the 'envelop + letter' case? 

Which settings of the dialog can be stored in the document and be reloaded?
Which settings of the dialog are persistent in a session? What are the default
settings of the dialog, can the user customize the defaults?

I think, that the dialog is too high.

BTW: Do you know the former OpenOffice project "Printer Pull Pages"?
