Bug ID: 148025 Summary: PDF does not write leading spaces Product: LibreOffice Version: 3.3.0 release Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Printing and PDF export Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: flywi...@gmail.com Copy and paste source code text from libreoffice pdf guides loses indent space characters. Reproducing: For example, the bottom of https://documentation.libreoffice.org/assets/Uploads/Documentation/en/GS7.3/GS73-GettingStarted.pdf#page=431 has sample python code. A copy and paste as text loses the blank line and any line with leading spaces is pasted with a single space before the code, losing the other spaces. Tabs are ignored. Code is formatted in Liberation Mono, a fixed-pitch font, with 4 spaces per indent. Sample output: import uno def HelloWorld(): doc = XSCRIPTCONTEXT.getDocument() cell = doc.Sheets[0]['A1'] cell.setString('Hello World from Python') return This is important for a language like python because indents are part of the syntax. It's expected the space characters would be retained, at least with an option. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
