For the record, I figured it out. What I had modified was the right setting, for the wrong program. (Some version of Draw, rather than Writer). The correct file to modify was sw/source/core/doc/doc.cxx . My fix did what I wanted, but to be useful to others, I'd need to e.g. add a spinner to the print dialog. Is there a recommended process for doing that; accessibility tables to not forget, string translation sheets to fill out? What's the process for getting a change reviewed/accepted/merged?

Hey, so you know the brochure printing mode? It normally prints a single signature - one stack of pages, where if you fold the stack down the middle, it forms a book. BUT, folding a stack of like 200 pages doesn't really work too well. I'd be preferable to specify a signature size - e.g., single sheets of paper, each of which you fold down the middle and stack. I thought I found where the code for that lies - sd/source/ui/view/DocumentRenderer.cxx , PrepareBooklet(), at the end of the function. But 1. the behavior I'd expect from that code doesn't quite match what I see in the preview in the Print window, and 2. after I changed the code to do what I wanted, and recompiled, the Print window behavior was entirely unchanged. Does anybody know where the relevant code actually is, or what's going on here?
