How to reproduce: * Open Writer * make sure Tools > Options > LibreOffice Writer > Print 'comments' in margin is selected * Type some words (doesn't matter how much) * Select the words * Insert > Comment (or CTRL+ALT+C) * File > Export as PDF * make sure "Export comments" is checked * Export to PDF Open created PDF. Expected behavior: An note icon is placed near the commented words Actual behavior: The note icon is not placed near the commented words. The placing of these icons in the pdf does not take into account that the page is scaled down and centered vertically to make room for the comments in the margin. Tested with LOdev version: 4.3.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: f99f4dc93f44fa1cd799d0ad87ded7ee90d82848 on openSuSE 12.3 (64-bit)
sigh, these are drawn in different passes, before and after the scaled stage.
Confirmed: Ubuntu 14.04 x64 Master 4.3 built a couple weeks ago Normal - can prevent professional work Medium - seems appropriate Attaching document showing problem.
