No exactly the description, but inside the heart, we have some white line. 

Some fire are outside the heart.

@ kkwet38@orange.fr: When you talk about PDF creator, it's a software ??


For  Result on PDF export.pdf, i use only LibreOffice. I go to Menu -> File -> Export as PDF.

PDF Creator is à software used to show the result of the print to paper.
Export as PDF can be used to hide the problem that appear when printing on PAPER.

With pc Debian x86-64 with 3.6 sources updated some days ago + cups-pdf 2.6.1-6, I reproduce only the white grid inside the heart.

I would like to do so, but unfortunately, I can’t test printing issues. (I haven’t got a printer, I send all my printing jobs as PDF files to some Windows machine to which a printer is connected ... can’t access the printer via network).


@ Alex Thurgood:
Could you, being our QA expert for printing on Mac OS X, please test if this problem is reproducible on Mac OS X, too? Thank you very much!
Comment 16 kkwet38 2013-03-22 10:30:06 UTC
Problem always present on Version 4.0.1.2 (Build ID: 84102822e3d61eb989ddd325abf1ac077904985)
Comment 17 Alex Thurgood 2013-03-24 08:38:28 UTC
Tested on :

Version 4.1.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: edf57013463eff6d3b40d8d5d933577f0e6cf8e)

Downloaded ODG file.
Opened in Draw.
Cmd-P to print to networked colour laser printer
Print result : fine, no overlap, nothing outside the heart shape, heart shape itself completely filled with bitmap.

Can not reproduce on OSX 10.8.2.

Comment 18 Alex Thurgood 2013-03-24 09:00:25 UTC
Confirming on LO 3.6.5.2 on Windows XP SP3

On screen within LO the heart is displayed correctly filled.

When sending to printer, Print Preview displays ragged, almost square shaped heart boundary.

Printed result is a square filled with the fire motif bitmap.

Comment 19 Alex Thurgood 2013-03-24 09:16:39 UTC
The white line grid seems to result from the placement of the tiled bitmaps (on Windows).

Tested on 2 different printers :

Samsung CLX 3175 FN Colour Network Laser
Kyocera FS C5150DN Colour Network Laser

** Please read this message in its entirety before responding **

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (4.4.0.3 or later): https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a short comment that includes your version of LibreOffice and Operating System

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case)

Thank you for your help!

Reproduced.

The white lines on the exported PDF might be dependent on the PDF displaying software. They are visible in Firefox, but not in SumatraPDF for example.

If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 

1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3)

2. Test your bug 

3. Leave a comment with your results. 

4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to "inherited from OOo"; 
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add "regression" to keyword
