There is something wrong with LO's pdf export specifically, because printing to the cups-pdf PDF- generator produces a usable PDF file (also less than half the size), and the document can be printed directly from LO. The problem seems related to images. The test document contains a small (8K) jpeg image. Steps to reproduce: 1. sudo apt-get install cups-pdf 2. lowriter Test.odt 3. Export-to-PDF (produces Test.pdf) 4. Print to the "PDF" device (produces $HOME/PDF/Test.pdf) 5. Print the document directly to a real postscript printer (works) 6. lpr $HOME/PDF/Test.pdf (works) 7. lpr Test.pdf (crashes my printer, YMMV) Note the file sizes: Test.odt - 26K Test.pdf (exported from LO) - 180K Test_PrintedToCupsPdf.pdf - 75K As you can see, the export-to-pdf function produces a file more than twice as large as cups-pdf (and, for me at least, too large to print). Suggest figuring out what LO is doing differently than cups-pdf and consider changing to what cups-pdf does.
