Seems to be a known problem of Ubuntu 20.04 based system, which never completely removed LibreOffice. Please perform the following procedure: 1. dpkg --list | awk '/ii/&&/libreoffice/{print $2}' | sudo xargs apt purge -y ure 2. sudo apt autoremove 3. sudo apt install libreoffice See also: https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/242188/cannot-print-anything-exporting-to-pdf-produces-blank-pdf-lubuntu-2004/ From my perspective a bug of Ubuntu 20.04 initial installs and not a bug of LibreOffice.

No - from my perspective it is not a bug in Launchpad PPA but Ubuntu's initial installation of version 20.04 in conjunction with initial installation of LibreOffice. The same procedure mentioned in my comment#2 worked to fix the same issue with LibreOffice installe from Ubuntu's base operating system repositories. There must be some inconsistency in libraries which obviously get fixed with step 2. from the procedure provided (i.e. "sudo apt autoremove") and a subsequent re-installation, if there is no LibreOffice installed at the time of executing step 2.(that's why step 1. is required). Once done it should never happen again on any update of LibreOffice regardless of the repository being used. Please provide a feedback whether the procedure fixes the issue for you as well. I'm pretty sure this is not a LibreOffice bug.
For Launchpad I mean the Launchpad for Ubuntu bugs, not pro Libreoffice :) There exists already a bug for this problem or I must open it? PS: the procedure worked, now I can print text :D
Set the bug to WORKSFORME, since the procedure worked for you as well.

Please search open and closed bugs before reporting. Another good practice is to try current Lo, which is 7.1 now where this should be fixed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 125234 ***
