Don't know if they work with Linux

[ljerams]

No, they never work with Linux and that is the reason why I asked if somebody would kindly send me the back and front copies to print. As I mentioned the Links you gave produces three pages in Linux not two as required. The

Linux format is just too large

Any chance you could do this for me?

[Daffy D]

Still not sure what you are asking

Here are JPG files of front and back of Tm7 form.

I can send hard copies if you want, just PM your address

Daffy,

Many thanks for trying to help. Can you please attach those pages to a PM? I will then be able to open them correctly and print them

This is what happens in Linux because the originators of the forms have correctly locked the format in Word and I cannot unlock them. Linux sees their text as being larger,producing more pages therefore I get the first page as two pages instead of only one,

Laurence.

Perhaps this will be easier. I generated a PDF version of it and you can select your printer to print duplex.

The PDF is perfect but printing it in Libre Office and it prints all wrong. Not sure if this is a Libre Office problem, printer or Linux issue. I know I've printed PDF's before successfully. Anyway thanks for trying to help me.

I have re-installed the cups printing system and guess what -- it prints correctly again!. Good grief, that set back wasted a lot of time and caused much head scratching!.

Again you kind Members, many thanks for helping me sort this out. I shall now copy some more just in case

Simple solution. Buy windows then no problem,.

[ljerams]

No thanks. Too dangerous in my rather long experience of computers. Generally, Linux has over perhaps 12 years or more use has caused very few problems for me and I believe,is much safer!

Glad you got it sorted

Cheers and many big thanks again.

Incidentally whilst I prefer Linux systems, I am only expressing my opinion.
