[Issue 128167] New: Won't print blank database with only lines
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=128167
Issue ID: 128167
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Won't print blank database with only lines
Product: Base
Version: 4.1.5
Hardware: Mac
OS: macOS 10.13
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Major
Priority: P5 (lowest)
Component: code
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: de_sturtz@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
Hi
I set up a page with black horizontal lines only, no words, pics or anything
else. When I go to print, it shows the lined page but then says I can't print
because the page is empty. It doesn't get much easier than printing lines on a
page. Why so difficult, or at the time being not even possible, with
OpenOffice?
Thanks

I've no idea what the use case is for this kind of data in a database.
Please can you tell us how you have set this up? Then we can try to reproduce
and would be able to give more help. Thanks in advance.

No idea where the comment I sent yesterday is. Anyway, I figured it out.
There's a box to click when printing that says "print empty pages" that has to
be checked. Apparently OpenOffice doesn't see intentionally created
lines/borders on a page as important to the document. Not a technical glitch,
but a programming glitch.
Solved.

Hi Marcus
I'm simply trying to make a blank sheet of paper with horizontal lines. And in
my original post I meant to say "spreadsheet", not "database". Maybe that could
help with the confusion. That said...
I create a new spreadsheet. I highlight the areas where I want to have lines. I
click "borders" and make the lines. I go to "page view" and it shows my page
with lines. I go to "print preview" and it shows a blank page.
Note: After nearly an hour at this, I finally see that OpenOffice considers
lines that we put on a page to be nothing of importance. We have to click the
"include output of empty pages" when we print our entirely not empty pages.
Thanks for your quick response Marcus.
