Encountered this problem as well under Ubuntu (12.04, 3.2.0-23, amd64) and LibO 3.5.2. This is a serious one, since a pdf produced in such a way will be readable by evince for example (the usual application under linux), but not by adobe reader (the usual one under windows). Sending such documents to windows users can be seriously embarrassing (imagine sending a cv to an employer, who complains not being able to open that file). Would send people running away from libreoffice (and linux). Please increase urgency !!! PS: Used to EXPORT TO PDF button under LibOWriter to produce such a corrupted pdf file "Print to file" is not a pdf-export -- it may for example be plain postscript among other things. closing as invalid. The request for monochrome PDF production seems reasonable to me David; any chance you can file that as a new bug and CC me, prolly it could become an easy-hack. Thanks :-) Thanks, Michael. Actually, I already filed a separate bug report about that -- it's number 47278. |
