I've investigated further & the problem remains. |
| 11 |
It occurred to me that it was perhaps being caused by importing a text file |
| 12 |
&/or that the original import & PDF had been done by OpenOffice 3 ya . |
| 13 |
However, apostrophes & extended dashes are mangled as shown above |
| 14 |
even when I enter a completely new .odt file. I've tried changing the font |
| 15 |
& using the PDF dialog under 'File', but the bad effect still happens. |
| 16 |

This has to be a bug in LO : whatever the characters in the .odt , |
| 18 |
LO sb able to reproduce them correctly in the exported PDF . |
| 19 |
It appears that I don't have a bug account with LO, so I've applied for one |
| 20 |
& after checking whether anyone else has run into it, will report it. |

| 22 |
Any further suggestions by Gentoo users are very welcome. |
