PDF outputs between msoffice, v3.5 and v4.2 with original office file

After updating to libreoffice 4.2 from 3.5 the pdf conversions has been worse off as shown in the attachments

Also the right hand side page margins when attempting to fit page doesn't seem correct as it doesn't go full to the right hand side like it does on the left margins. See ms-office pdf for correct margin output. Maybe this is related to msoffice excel or something in the pdf conversion i'm not sure.

Not reproducible with default profile /setting in:
Version: 4.2.7.0.0+
Build ID: 546cd96371b5ae012e4f3bfe963ea299e1dcec54
TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86@45-TDF, Branch:libreoffice-4-2, Time: 2014-07-30_13:16:10

Not exactly same with attached result from MSO, but not messy like attached result from LO 4.2

Tested under Ubuntu 12.04 x86

It's different problem, not with "Export as PDF", since we can see same result within Page Preview. Please file a new bug report, but I guess it's been reported before (you can do search first in this Bugzilla)
