Description Pablo 2014-06-04 05:03:47 UTC
Hello!

I'm exporting a presentation to a PDF, and I've the first page with color as the original presentation, but all the rest are blank and without the text, only the first title from each page.

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 in English language. Libreoffice Version: 4.2.3.3 and Build ID: 420m0(Build:3) in Impress.

Best.

thanks for the report.

In order to reproduce this issue and fix it, we need a sample document.
So if you have a sample document that presents this behavior, please upload it to this report.

Thanks Pablo!
I tested the document and here on my LibreOffice 4.2.4.2 and 4.3.0.0.beta1 the 2nd and 3rd page are wrongly exported as in your PDF.

4.1.6.2 exports the PDF fine (attached).

I'm setting the bug as NEW and Version to 4.2.3.3.
