Hi,
[if you are in a hurry, go to IN SHORT: a little bit down]
One thing I am interested in, if you are able to try once more. How is this
working with LibreOffice Windows. You can find a portable version (install it
on a folder on the desktop -> after testing deleting this folder is enough)
This is about testing, if really Linux only (To less insight in Linux. Has
Linux a PDF printer included or did you use the Print to file somewhere else.
>From Windows I know that the driver of a PDF printer is totally different from
a real printer, that's why I stressed this point. I do not want to put a lot of
additional work on you, really, but all (at least) I read is: Printing to PDF
works -> LibreOffice output is okay -> Printing to real printer does not work
-> Bug in all Linux printer's except of PDF output...
So, I read that cups is doing (all??) the printing. No additional drivers
needed (nice, if so...) Still you seemed to use a feature of cups to save as
PDF and not a "real" PDF printer. So IMHO cups code could still be affected.
BTW: (original from: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Druckwerkzeuge -> German)

Hinweis:
Ab Ubuntu 11.04 kann die Nutzung von CUPS-PDF durch diverse Fehler (z.B.
820820, 942866) stark beeinträchtigt sein (PDF-Dateien sind unleserlich und
nicht mehr durchsuchbar).

Bugs in cups-pdf and the above waring makes me wonder, wether we should trust
cups-pdf...
IN SHORT:
After a long comment the sentence which was the comment all about:
I can't print out a envelope and I would really like to know, if this also
happens on Windows. Personally I use http://www.pdfforge.org/ for printing to
PDF @Windows... Because this PDF printer has his own driver and your real
printer has a totally different set of drivers in Windows, the results should
be the same, or it seems to be a bug in the printer driver... Yes I still think
so, because when you save to pdf, this happens in Linux inside of cups, which I
do not really like (because it may hide some issues)
Sorry for putting back to NEEDINFO, maybe this is not only a Linux bug..
