[Bug 886571] Re: printing from libreoffice garbles output
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 879977 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879977 This bug hits me as well. Running fully-updated Oneiric (Kubuntu, x86_64) and printing to two different HP printers (Deskjet 5550 and Laserjet 1320) via a CUPS 1.5.0 server running on FreeBSD 8.2. The problem is reproducible on two independent machines. Using PDF as a printing language in Libreoffice Writer causes two problems: - Page margins are not correct (usually the text body is shifted towards the right, I print to DIN A4 paper). This seems to happen regardless of the content of the document. - For texts involving German (umlauts ä, ö, ü) or French (accents é, è, ...) special characters, the text is printed as garbadge, with ' or characters replacing ca. 50% of the letters. For documents involving only English characters this does not seem to happen, however a single non-English character occurring in the document is sufficient to trash the entire printout. Switching to Postscript as a printer language in Libreoffice solves both problems completely. PDF printing from other applications (okular) on the Linux clients as well as on the BSD server itself works flawlessly. Downgrading foomatic-filters to 4.0.7 as recommended by Age did not resolve the issue in my case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886571 Title: printing from libreoffice garbles output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/886571/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm the same problem with a HP1020. I found another workaround in http://askubuntu.com/questions/68909/im- having-problems-printing-in-libreoffice-writer-adobe-acrobat-reader-and- evo : What fixed the problem for me was reverting from pdf to postscript print setting in LibO. File - Printer Settings - Properties - Device - Printer Language type was set to PDF so I changed it to PostScript.
