Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ghostscript
When I create a drawing in OpenOffice consisting of rectangle with white
fill and a black border, the rectangle will be filled with yellow when I
print it. I've tried changing most printing options (color correction,
temperature, etc), this doesn't make a difference.
This did not occur on Karmic. I tracked it down to ghostscript: if I
compile and install the ghostscript packages from Karmic in Lucid, the
problem goes away.
I will attach a sample document and the resulting PostScript that is
sent to the printer. The printer is a Xerox 6180MFP, which is a color
printer with PS support.
