No blanks here. I also tried with the gtk2 UI backend as that is what Xfce uses.
Could you link to the Ubuntu bug report? You can input it to the "See also" field.

These blanks contain nothing at all and I have not figured out how to remove them. But they are included when I print them. I'm attaching a file on which this happens. It contains an anonymized fragment of the original, repeates a number of times. I suggest you create two copies, called perhaps junk1.txt and junk2.txt. I use the command "soffice junk*" to load them into the writer, and I get the extra blank pages. If, however, I just do soffice junk1.txt, I get a document of the correct size. I can do that of course, but it is still an annoying and inconvenient error for my workflow. --- One hint to debugging: if I do this: for i in junk1.txt junk2.txt do soffice $i & done I see the problem. If, however, I introduce a delay the problem does not appear. Like so: for i in junk1.txt junk2.txt do sleep 2 soffice $i & done ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: libreoffice-writer 1:6.0.7-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-43.46-generic 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-43-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Mon Jan 21 13:58:01 2019 InstallationDate: Installed on 2018-10-18 (95 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 18.04.1 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Release amd64 (20180725) SourcePackage: libreoffice UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/1812754/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
