Description Charles Bell 2014-04-11 07:31:45 UTC
Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
1. ....Write more than one page of text
2. ....Select to "Export as PDF"
3. ....Save as PDF

Current behavior: Half of the first page is unreachable.  It shows the full page in the left panel but you cannot read below the first half of the page.  NOTHING below the middle can be viewed.

Expected behavior: The full page of text should be legible and available to view.

Also in the print section "Print to PDF" is no no longer available.              
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.2.3.1 rc

tested under Win7x64 with LibO 4.2.2.1 and multiple PDF readers (Adobe Acrobat Pro 7.1; PDFXchange Viewer 2.5; FOxit PDF Reader 5.4)

the PDF output you attached looks fine to me and is identical to the ODT input
I can also export again that ODT again to PDF and I still see no issues

which PDF reader are you using? would you please post a screenshot showing what you actually see as a bug in your computer?

The attachments are for the PDF and the PDF viewer (Ocular).
The second picture shows the info about Ocular.
As I stated before this is repeatable with other documents and
only recently showed up.
Thank you!

I suspsect that's an issue of that Ocular PDF reader since I have no issue at all with your file and other PDF softwares.

Indeed, I also fail to reproduce, tested using Mac OSX 10.9 with LibreOffice Version: 4.3.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 619b4c40da9e85febbb08a3f7cf8aa8d10963fc1
TinderBox: MacOSX-x86@49-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2014-04-18_00:07:53 by exporting the .odt myself + open your attached 'wrong' pdf. Both pdf's shows correctly.

Marking as RESOLVED NOTOURBUG.

Kind regards,
Joren
