***UPDATE:*** Okay, I've refined my bounty on the desired features
MORE OPTIONS FOR GLOBAL PRINT BEHAVIORS for each app under LOffice.
Examples (But not limited to)
Such as, in "Impress," have the default printout type be handouts. Why bother?
Well, to avoid making users who are used to Powerpoint have to make several
extra clicks to print off handouts, when there should be a way to set that as
the default for Impress. Then maybe that will lead to "slides per sheet" being
an available option for handouts, that would be nice to see. If it's there, it
certainly isn't obvious.
In Calc, sometimes for no feasibly explainable reason, .ods and more commonly
spreadsheets using Excel's file format will assume 0" of margins upon printing.
Instead of fumbling with "Print Preview" which has slowly become a deprecated
feature with better print menus, there should be a checkbox for fitting into
printable page/pages, maybe some BASIC scaling options, too. Because none is
too few, imho.
I'd like to see a major overhaul in creature comforts in printing from
LibreOffice, and just better global settings with the user (their time and
patience) in mind. Literally just going through the bugs involving printing, if
an update addressing this can be released. If printing was a little more
seamless it would make this software completely bulletproof.
In my circle, everyone fell in love with LOffice almost instantly. Myself
included, obviously, I've been using it for almost a decade on and off.
Definitely my preferred office suite. That, however, goes out the window for
me, and just about everyone I've weened off of MS's teets, when we try to print
something. Then it's like pulling teeth.
