Thank you so much for taking time to report this issue and make Ubuntu better!

Tested on Lubuntu 20.04.1 LTS and Groovy Lubuntu daily ISO 20200930 and can confirm this. As a workaround run in terminal: sudo apt install libreoffice-kf5 followed by: sudo apt remove libreoffice-qt5 I refer to https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/242188/cannot-print-anything-exporting-to-pdf-produces-blank-pdf-lubuntu-2004/ this needs further testing as there maybe adverse effects which I am not aware of. -- 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/1892637 Title: Printing a blank page with libreoffice on Lubuntu 20.04 Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hello maintainer, Printing from libreoffice on Lubuntu 20.04 allways produces a blank page.
