[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 42427] PRINTING: Many fonts have bad spacing, overwritten or missing letters while printing (kerning?)
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42427 --- Comment #13 from Vincent Van Houtte 2012-02-11 05:23:36 PST --- So I've done some testing, and these are the results: 1. This must be OTF-related. I have used 4 TTF-fonts and even 1 PS-font and neither one of them had any kerning-problems. I also tested the fonts 'linux biolinum' (TTF) vs 'linux biolinum O' (OTF). On screen they are both the same, but in print the results of the OTF-font are abominable. 2. I have also tested the same text inside a completely new document and the problems were also visible on the first page, whereas in my letter-template, the first page is printed perfectly with an OTF-font, but subsequent pages (with a different page style) are not. Conclusion: OTF-support in Libreoffice 3.4.3 (340m1 build 302) is broken and utterly unusable (according to another comment this is linux-only). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42427 --- Comment #10 from Vincent Van Houtte 2012-02-07 15:01:39 PST --- I can confirm the bug. I have created a new document from scratch in LibreOffice 3.4.3 (debian stable backports-edition), entirely with the free font called 'Gill Std Light'. Strangely, the problem occurs only on the second and following pages, which I created a new pagestyle for (but I see no option in the page styling dialogs that could cause this behaviour). I can also confirm that the problem occurs in the header text (don't know if it's relevant at all, but who knows...). The generated PDF's are perfect both on screen and on paper. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42427 --- Comment #9 from Bret Moore 2011-11-21 08:02:35 PST --- Hi, I can confirm this bug appeared for me today as well. I upgraded to Ubuntu 11.10 last week, and everything was fine until this morning (there was an update to my desktop machine which hosts the printer; unsure if that caused the problem). I can confirm that printing is totally fine from PDF, but directly from LibreOffice I have the exact problem with letter spacing / kerning being all wonky, stuff printing on top of each other and too far apart. Strange issue. I use Ubuntu 11.10 on my laptop and desktop, both 64-bit, and the printer is a Brother MFC-7460DN. CUPS seems to like it just fine, test pages look fine and as I said printing from PDF directly is totally fine. This appears to be strictly a LibreOffice issue. FWIW, I'm using a font I purchased (Sabon STD), which is installed to my /home/userID/.fonts directory on both machines. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42427 --- Comment #7 from risto h. kurppa 2011-11-10 01:03:22 PST --- I did some more testing. 1) Creating a new document with LO, printing -> OK 2) Opening an existing document, printing -> missing letters 3) Opening the same document in KOffice, printing -> OK 4) Opening an existing document, adding new text, printing -> old text misses letters, new doesn't 5) Opening an existing document, exporting as PDF, printing -> Missing letters 6) Opening an existing document, adding text, saving, closing, re-opening, printing -> old text misses letters, new doesn't 7) I created a document (abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzåäö) with KOffice and saved it as ODT. Opened in LibreOffice and printed, all letters j-o missing. I first thought it has something to do in how LO opens documents created with MS Office because my sample cases have been RTF and another one that originally has been a .doc but that I've saved as .odt at some point. But 7) confirms that it's something else. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42427 --- Comment #4 from risto h. kurppa 2011-11-10 00:31:45 PST --- I'd think I've bumped to the same issue on LibreOffice 3.4 340m1(Build:302) (Kubuntu 11.10). For example a rtf document I received. Opening and printing it with Libreoffice and some letters have been replaced by " (or '' or the umlaut dots of ä). Opened the same file on KOffice, the letters were there (ok, the layout was totally lost but that's another issue ;). I'm also able to print from Kate/text editor and Chromium/Web browser normally. Also if I create a PDF document with LibreOffice and open it with Okular / PDF viewer, the letters are missing (although I can see them on screen) So to me it looks like that there's something weird in the way LO works with fonts. I've attached two scans for you to compare. Same RTF (created with MSOffice, I guess) printed with LibreOffice and KWord/Koffice. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
