I've investigated further & the problem remains. It occurred to me that it was perhaps being caused by importing a text file &/or that the original import & PDF had been done by OpenOffice 3 ya . However, apostrophes & extended dashes are mangled as shown above even when I enter a completely new .odt file. I've tried changing the font & using the PDF dialog under 'File', but the bad effect still happens. This has to be a bug in LO : whatever the characters in the .odt , LO sb able to reproduce them correctly in the exported PDF . It appears that I don't have a bug account with LO, so I've applied for one & after checking whether anyone else has run into it, will report it. Any further suggestions by Gentoo users are very welcome. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
