Calc/CellWrapping

Problem

There are some problems between the edit view and print preview respectively PDF.

As of today Calc's view always formats as if the setting "Tools->Options->Calc->General->UsePrinterMetrics" was enabled ignoring the actual preference.

The PDF-export respects that setting and either layouts for an abstract printer (default) or it formats for the requested printer.

Workaround

The function " Use printer metrics for text formatting" you can find under

"Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org Calc-> General"

You have to activate this.

Possible Solution

Calc's view must not ignore the "Tools->Options->Calc->General->UsePrinterMetrics" setting (issue 96397).
