Here seem to be problems in several different programs: Comment #24 makes the impression that LibreOffice is taking up to much memory/CPU to generate the print job, comment #25 proves a fault in Okular, generating too big print jobs (we discussed already in other bugs with evince that a PDF viewer should simply pass through the input PDFs for printing), and comment #26 shows the known problem of Ghostscript being slow on PDF (bug 668800, but probably every PDF interpreter is slow on a 156 MB PDF). Another problem can be a memory leak in the pdftopdf filter, but this is already fixed and will soon appear as an update for Natty, see bug 790378.
Moving to Okular due to the large print output file and reopening LibreOffice task as there is also perhaps still a problem. The CUPS task is not needed any more as the problems are known and treated in other bug reports. ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New ** Package changed: cups (Ubuntu) => okular (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: okular (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/739233 Title: Impress freezes the computer when printing slides with embedded spreadsheets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/739233/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
