+ I'm interested in how you found this. Could you please explain how you found that LO uses the graphite engine with the font Linux Libertine O?
It's pure intuition ;-). More serious : after I've found out that Libertine G (with Graphite) works, Libertine O (without Graphite) doesn't and LO included in the meanwhile Graphite as engine it was a counting 1+1+1=3 (in this case only 2 ;-). Previous LO (and OOo) worked nice with our printers and libreoffice (my company uses it for all 'official' documents as superior Times replacement). Now I have to convert all existing templates (and 'reused' documents ...) to Libertine G. Not really a problem, but 1. I'm afraid I have to convert them again ... and 2. it takes more time to install Libertine G seperately on all our production machines (currently in transition from Ubuntu 10.04 to 12.04) than simply installing Libertine O from repository. + As well, do you know if the font Linux Libertine O is fitted for graphite? AFAIK it is not see http://linuxlibertine.sourceforge.net/ + Also, should Linux Libertine O be fitted for graphite? Naturally, best would be if Libertine G from http://numbertext.org/linux/ get's merged into Libertine O from here http://linuxlibertine.sourceforge.net/ -- 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/1018069 Title: Linux Libertine & Libreoffice 3.5 distorted printing Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Linux Libertine 5.1.3 and Libreoffice 3.5.x (I've tested 3.5.3 and 3.5.4) don't play well together. On screen everthing looks nice, but on printout the distances between the letters are completly distored. The printout is hard to read and looks ugly. I've seen this on all our machines (at the moment 7) where Ubuntu 12.04 is installed. Printer is always a Brother MFC 8640N Older Ubuntu releases e.g. 10.04 and 11.10 (with older Libreoffice, OpenOffice and Linux Libertine, ) print as they should, as did every Ubuntu release in the past. Solution is to use the Linux Libertine G variant from here http://www.numbertext.org/linux/index.html. Which is a 'graphite' version of Linux Libertine. Now printings of Linuxlibertine are fine again. It looks like Libreoffice 3.5.x uses the graphite engine with Linux Libertine, regardless if the font is fittet for graphite or not. --- ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu13 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Beta amd64 (20120421) Package: libreoffice 1:3.5.4-0ubuntu1.1 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-31.50-generic 3.2.28 Tags: precise running-unity Uname: Linux 3.2.0-31-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1018069/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
