Milan Bouchet-Valat, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Could you please attach the Writer file that when printed demonstrates this problem? What printer make and model are you using? Does this occur for you in LibreOffice? If using Lucid or Maverick feel free to type at the Terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install libreoffice-writer For more on LibreOffice installation, please see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOffice ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/647086 Title: Weird characters when printing using font Gentium Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: openoffice.org Printing a basic text in the Gentium font gives strange results: all spaces are replaced by 'â', and 'o' letters are replaced by 'q'. Exporting to PDF and PS works fine, and printing these files gives correct results too. This is very close to what bug 376953 described (apostrophes not printed, but PDF and PS export working when using Gentium). But it was fixed upstream somewhere in the 3.2 series (with ooo32gsl09 at least). I'm attaching a simple testcase PS file, since they were also wrong even if they were printed correctly in the other bug, according to Till Kamppeter (see the other report).
