When we print a Writer document with database fields, it asks: "Your document contains address database fields. Do you want to print a form letter?" But, we cannot chooses which pages to print and it prints all. We should have a dialog to choose which pages from document to print.
@Timur - can you provide clear steps on how to get to that dialog. Also a sample document would help. Setting to NEEDINFO - once you provide info please set to UNCONFIRMED. Thanks
Created attachment 110046 [details] Simple ODT mailmerge example with 1 field and 2 pages 1. Open new Writer document and add 2nd page 2. Turn on View-Data Sources 3. From built-in Bibliography data source with 20 records, add Author field to the document on the 1st page 4. Choose File-Print to print document with database fields (20 copies) and Yes to print a form letter 5. You can choose Records and Output but not pages from the document to print so it will print all pages x number of records
Created attachment 110960 [details] Pages and Ranges: example added to mailmerge Print dialog I put here "Inherited from OO". There've been some improvements through development, because OO prints forms badly, but neither can choose pages. I add an example image how mailmerge print dialog might look like with standard Pages and Ranges print section.
One for the UX folks :-)
