If I convert this file to PDF with writer_pdf_Export by using
cventin:~> libreoffice --headless --convert-to pdf file.txt
convert /home/vlefevre/file.txt -> /home/vlefevre/file.pdf using filter :
writer_pdf_Export
then I get a PDF with some spacing issues. But if I convert it to PDF via
printing to file
cventin:~> libreoffice --headless --print-to-file file.txt
print /home/vlefevre/file.txt -> /home/vlefevre/file.pdf using
<default_printer>
then the obtained has even more spacing issues.
I'm going to attach all these files.
