With Ooo 3.2 RC4  on Mac I cannot print DL envelopes. Papersize in writer is DL
Envelope. But the print dialog always shows an A4 or letter page. Tested with
postscript and non-postscript Epson printer driver.

I had to downgrade to Ooo 3.1. No problems here.

Can't see any difference between 3.0 and The aktual RC.

I have the same problem on linux (Mandriva 2010). Is there a fix for this yet?
OpenOffice.org 3.1.1

Please describe your settings at the envelope dialog in tabpage Format & Printer.
Thanks

I have not used the envelope dialog yet. 

I have made a new document (or open an old one) and set the page size to DL
envelope wide (22x11 cm). When I try to print such a document the print dialog
preview shows a wrong (bigger) paperzize (A4). This is differnt to ooo 3.1.  I
have discoverd when I enter a non standard paper size (v.e. 24x11 cm) the
papersize does not change in the print dialog.

I have ssen that the envelope assitant has differnt settings on how envelopes
are stored in the printer. depending on that setting marings where added to the
papersize or not. My printer detects envelopes automaticly an expects only
papersizes that match the envelopes.

To me it looks like, when an an envelope paper format is choosen, ooo 3.2
automaticaly adds additional margins, that I don't need. 

These margins can be set the envelope assitant with the paper feed options. But
this is only for new documents. Can these settings be manipulated afterwards?

So a regression from OOo 3.1 is not going to be fixed in OOo 3.3! How surprising !!! After all, Mac users 
couldn't print brochures until OOo 3.3. Maybe by OOo 3.6 we will be able to print envelopes again.

Thanks again for the wonderful attention being paid to issues for Mac users.

Hmm. iWorks 2011 or MS Office 2010? Time to decide.

IMO the same as http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113562
Comment 14 thorsten.ziehm 2011-03-17 08:02:02 UTC
Set the 'regression' keyword.
Comment 15 philipp.lohmann 2011-03-25 12:29:10 UTC
let's try to fix this after branchoff
Comment 16 philipp.lohmann 2011-03-28 12:41:40 UTC
Fixed in CWS ooo34gsl01: if the printer driver reports DL as supported, a DL sized document will choose DL as paper size now.
Comment 17 philipp.lohmann 2011-04-06 12:45:46 UTC
please verify in CWS ooo34gsl01
Comment 18 h.ilter 2011-04-08 14:08:11 UTC
Verified with cws ooo34gsl01 = ok
Comment 19 Larry Gusaas 2011-08-19 20:22:50 UTC
Not fixed in OOo 3.4 Beta
Comment 20 edd 2011-11-30 15:49:49 UTC
I'm struggling with this problem on a Mac.  I find that print also defaults to A4 if I set page size to A5 or A3.  In fact, if I set page size to something roughly approximating to 1.4 : 1 ratio, then it defaults to A4.  It's extremely annoying and I'll have to revert to OOo3.1 till it's fixed, but where can I download 3.1?
