Created attachment 56122 [details] Document creating two printjobs when trying to print
confirm. The reason is that at the vcl printer two different page formats are requested. For documents with two really different page formats (e.g. insert->envelope) there is no way around this since the mac printing system does not allow for the page format to change during a print job, so you need to create two jobs. With the attached document however I see no reason why there should be two page formats involved. fme: do you have any input on this ?
@pl: After a first glance, I cannot see anything special about this document. Except from the fact that the paper size is set to 'user'. What's puzzling me is that pdf creation is also said to be affected. That should be platform independent, shouldn't it? But I cannot reproduce the pdf issue.

Sorry - I was wrong. PDF export is working like expected, just printing does not. Next I tried to change paper format from "user" to "A4" for both sides of the document (the two pages have different page temlates) - now printing works well. So the problem seems to be paper format "user" which is /always/ treated as change in paper format (and so resulting in two print jobs) even if there is no change in actual values of paper height and width for the pages involved.
if that is the case I should take another look at it.
confirm
Test for actual paper size instead of just the name of the paper size would be the better solution.
This problem is fixed in DEV300m71 (containing CWS printerpullpages, which fixed this on the fly)
