Hello Peter, 
Thank you for your bug report, I can't reporduce this bug running LibreOffice 4.0.3.1 on mac osx 10.8.3. 

I have printed it out on my HP Photosmart 5510 but is was printed just like it should be. maby this bug is in FreePDF and not LibreOffice.

Hi, thanks for the fast turnaround - this is excellent service!

I just confirmed that the error will also show up when printing on a Kyocera FS 1030D. This gives me a paper hardcopy, but that copy looks just like the PDF that I've sent (displaced horizontal rule; lower right quarter left white).

So this might be a Windows specific problem or perhaps a problem that only shows up when LibreOffice prepares documents for certain printers but not for others.

I'm not aware of any problems with my printer installation; all my other print jobs print just fine.

Just confirmed that this bug will also show up when printed on a DeskJet 3050-J610. In this case, the problem is worse (highlighted in red).

Installed LibreOffice completely from scratch on a different machine that has Windows XP. Printed hardcopy on my Deskjet 3050. Problem showed up again.

Hello Peter, I have tested it again with LibreOffice 4.0.3.3 on a Windows 7 machine with the same printer but is still gives the correct printout. after that is tested again with version 4.0.2.2 on a other Windows 7 pc. and sow the bug. 

I recomment updating to version 4.0.3.3 that came out and check of the bug is fixed for you. if it is please set the status to"resolved" "worksforme" if not please let me know.

Confirming that the bug has disappeared in ver. 4.0.3.3 (this pertains to both bugs #64271 and #64269).

Thanks a lot for the fast turnaround; I'm impressed!
