Shows odd characters printed from top of page in writer

Hi,

when printing from Libre Writer (5.0.2.2) all pages print with a strange garbage mix of characters at the top left of paper.

Windows 10, Canon Pixma MG3200.

Other software prints fine without these odd characters.

This is a real problem for professional printed documents.

It appears to be a similar bug that has been filed by others, but the fix suggested to disable OpenGL has not fixed this issue for me.

Thanks for this report. It's a known bug, which is already fixed for the upcoming 5.0.3. In the meantime, going to Tools->Options...->View, and unchecking "Use OpenGL for all rendering" (and restarting LO afterwards) should solve the problem.
