           Summary: 'Display' name not displayed properly when printing
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sabine at kdab.net
                CC: tokoe at kde.org


Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

- Launch Kontact and go to KAB
- Create three contacts (Celine Vivelevent, Helene Duchateau, John Smith)
- Create an additional contact (Don Toto)
- Right click in the 'display' line edit and select 'reverse name'
- Click on 'Ok'
- Select all the contacts and go to File menu/Print
- Select 'print to File (PDF)'
- choose a name and location for the file
- Click on 'Print'
- choose 'Selected contacts' and click on 'Next'
- choose 'Formatted name' as a criterion and click on 'Next'
- Click on 'Finish'

Open the .pdf you've created. In it, Don Toto is at the end of the list since
it has been sorted according to its surname. However it is displayed as 'Don
Toto' and not as 'Toto Don' as one would expect.

Also it is confusing to set the 'Display' name when creating a contact and then
to have to select the 'formatted name' from the printing assistant.
If they are the same functionality then it would make sense that there would be
only one name for it.
