I've just encountered the same issue. It was not possible to print single spreadsheet tab to PDF.
I have fixed it by defining print range properly (select cells / Format / Print Range / Set). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066423 Title: [Upstream] Calc can't print, export to PDF, or print preview Status in LibreOffice: Confirmed Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: 1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc libreoffice-calc: Installed: 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu3 Candidate: 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu3 Version table: *** 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu3 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3) What is expected to happen in Calc via a terminal: cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1066423/+attachment/3397788/+files/loprob.ods && localc --nologo loprob.ods Export to PDF, Print Preview, or print and it does so. 4) What happens when you: + Export to PDF is one gets a pop up noting: LibreOffice 3.6 Error saving the document loprob: Write Error. The file could not be written. + Page Preview it comes up with a blank gray background rather than a preview. Original Report Comments: + print Nothing was printed, but libreoffice displayed the string 'gtk printer' on the xterm console from which it was invoked, and left a directory and file '/tmp/luppt6wq.tmp/luppt6ws.tmp' behind. The .tmp file is an exact copy of the .ods spreadsheet with which LO was invoked. The CUPS printer manager and logs in /var/log/cups do not show a job corresponding to my attempt to print and I have no problem printing via other apps such as Firefox. I do not believe this is a CUPS issue. The behavior is highly sensitive to the contents of the spreadsheet. I have attached the offending document and it repeatably demonstrates the print/page preview problem described. However, if the final sheet ("Sheet10") of the document is deleted, the problem goes away and print/page preview function properly once again.
