[Solved] Composing a Writer table to be printed in Landscape

Post by wdc »

I have not composed an OOTable file to be printed in Landscape mode for a long time and need some reminder tips.

Do I define LANDSCAPE when I begin composing the file (and how do I do that?) Or do I define the mode only just before I send the file to the printer, after I have composed it? Thank you for your help. wdc

This is a setting that is part of the Page style.
Configure the page as landscape, compose and then send to the printer.

Remember also that when printing, in /File /Print, press the Properties button and change the Paper orientation to horizontal (landscape)
