The result of merging

* Create a sample spreadsheet document and fill the 1st column with some test data (see test.ods)
* Create a sample text document and insert a field associated with the column in the spreadsheet (<Full name> in text.otd)
* Start "Tools → Mail Merge Wizard". Press "Next" until you get to last step ("Save, print or send").
* In this dialog choose "Save merged document" and "Save as single document". Press "Save Documents" and save the document. For the newly opened merged document note that page 1 has text and page 2 has text (as expected).
* Open print dialog (Ctrl-P). 

Result: The number of reported pages is 7, while the editor displays only 4. Every even page is blank.
Expected: The number of pages on the document should be 4. The printed version should correspond to one on the screen (4 pages).

getting rid of value "enhancement" for field "severity".
For enhancement the field "issue type" shall be used.
