Just imagine if the answer to every > question of the Fedora List was "if you have any curiosity, you'll > figure it out" ---- I think I gave you the recipe above - rather than test it out, you post again. It wasn't intended to snippy beyond the obvious thought that you could at least try it on your own. In consideration that you don't understand the difference between page layout and document format consider a 'Presentation' document with 20 slides. In your view, each slide would necessarily have to be on separate pages. If you choose 'Format => Page => US Letter / Landscape' and then in Print => Properties choose to print 4 per page in Landscape mode, you get 5 pages with 4 slides per page.
