Yes, and I can see you also get the extra shapes in slide 5.  I wasn't
certain that those extra shapes were also bugs - my daughter insisted she
had not created those shapes at any stage and they genuinely didn't appear
to be in the slide but I couldn't imagine that a bug would manifest itself
in that way.

Thanks again for your help!

 Is it possible for you to upload a sample somewhere? Note: unfortunately
 this list doesn't allow attachments, so perhaps upload via nabble or to
 an alternate site. Also, in order for others to test properly, please
 let us know what operating system you are using, and, how you created
 the polygons and ovals (standard draw shapes, hand crafted/line edit
 points etc).
 

Yes, I can send the doc, but I don't know how to do it via nabble. 
Otherwise, I could email it you or maybe email a google docs link to you. 
What do you prefer/would be easiest?

This is on Win-7 64-bit.  The polygons/ovals were just standard shapes, with
standard bitmap fills (which are incorrectly printed as rectangles/polygons,
respectively, though with the correct polygon/oval outlines).

Thanks, Simon.

Duh it was so easy!  OK, hopefully attached below is the doc that my daughter
had created.  She first created slides 1-5 and found that slide 5 printed
incorrectly, as I described above.  I then helped create slide 6 to see if
that solved the problem, but didn't.  At that point I tried 3.4.2 (bad) and
then 3.3.4 (good).

The polygons came from Basic shapes and the oval from Ellipse.  We also
used Flowcharts, though I can't remember if they print incorrectly too.  I
still have 3.3.4 installed, but I can upgrade to 3.4.3 if that would help.

[libreoffice-users] Impress 3.4 prints polygons as rectangles and ovals as polygons

2011-09-12 Thread marshals
I used Impress in 3.4.3 to create a presentation containing graphics of
various shapes, eg, polygons, ovals, etc.  They looked fine when viewing in
a browser and they looked find in the little preview in the printer dialog
box.   However, for some of the pages in the presentation printed on my
Epson 400SX, the polygons are printed as squares (but with the polygon
border visible within) and the ovals are printed as polygons (again with the
oval border visible within).

I reinstalled LibreOffice 3.4.3, no joy.  I uninstalled and installed 3.4.2,
no joy.

I uninstalled and installed 3.3.4, and they are now printed correctly.

So, it seems there is some problem with the 3.4 series.  

Anyone come across this or know the cause?
