For whoever is interested I files a bugzilla on the defect in openoffice.org-writer-2.3.0-6.4.fc7 inability to be put into Landscape mode through File->Printer Setting->Properties https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=363951
Sorry, I've missed this thread, but aren't you supposed to go to Format, Page, Landscape?
If I'm missing something, I apologize for the noise.
Well "supposed to" is the key phrase. Anyone who has used MS Word know the you go to File->Printer Setup to do this also. Sure enough in Openoffice-write you can go to File-> Printer Setup and under Properties you find that you can choose Portrait and Landscape as options but it does not work. Therefore the bugzilla.
I haven't seen it stated yet but there are print options that don't consider page options and so I would think that it is a distinct advantage to have the 'Format => Page' options separate from the 'Print => Properties'
For example...
If you want to print 4 page up on a single sheet of paper...you might choose US Letter size in Landscape mode in Format => Page but choose to print 4 of those per page in Landscape mode on Ledger size paper.

I am sorry but what you are saying makes no sense. How exactly would you do what you are suggesting. How do you get OOwrite tp print anything 4 per page in Landscape mode on Ledger paper?
---- of course it doesn't make sense to you - that's why you filed the bugzilla.
I suppose that if you have any curiosity, you'll figure it out and close your bugzilla entry.
