            Bug ID: 94138
           Summary: Form Control Text Boxes Print And Export To PDF
                    Incorrectly
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.0.0.3 rc
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Printing and PDF export
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: drich...@largo.com

We have a good number of documents with form controls, and specifically using
text boxes to allow users to enter data.  These text boxes are hard coded with
our standard fonts in specific sizes.  Using LO 5 these controls do not print
or export correctly.  The fonts that are specified are not used.

For my test, I created the document control_test.odt with various fonts and
point sizes.  The fonts render correctly on the screen.  However when you
export to PDF or print, all of the text boxes are the same font and point size. 

I then checked the label widget, and set it to two different points sizes and
this worked correctly.

There are other, and other related nuances with form control text boxes.

If you do an edit> copy edit >paste the font that displays in the "paste" does
not match the font you selected until you exit editing mode.  This does not
happen with labels.

If you export to PDF and do not uncheck the option to create a PDF form, all of
the letters in the PDF overlap and do not render correctly.

I tried the PDF engine and then the postscript-2 and postscript-3 engines and
they all do the same thing.

First page is Nimbus Sans, second page is Liberation Sans and both results are
the same, so this appears not to be a font issue.
