I find the Graphite fonts defective.

Here is a screenshot of the LO built-in versions when printed via
cups-pdf (compared to otf):

And here's a screenshot from LO 3.4.3:

It's easy to see the difference between the G and the O versions. I find
that same when printing directly to the printer.

Where did you install them from  & where did you put them?

If LO is installed directly they are in the /opt folders:

When I tested I removed all and installed directly to ~/.fonts

Might be a good idea. However "Where did you install them from  & where
did you put them?" might give a clue as to what you have installed.

PDF viewers (Adobe, Evince, etc) will show the rendered output from the
system print & isn't related (as far as I know) to the application
screen render. When you tried the
'Tools|Options|LibreOffice|View|uncheck 'Screen font antialiasing' did
the screen Graphite fonts change in LO?
