export to PDF is giving bad format

[Nicholas A. Suppiah]

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

The PDF generated by the export to PDF is not producing the a correctly formated document. The data that is causing the problem is data from a table created from Calc embed in Impress.

See attachment;

The PDF results;
In slide 1, row no. 2 text spills over to column 3
In slide 2, row no. 1 text spills over to column 3
In slide 2, row 3&4 the italic text is eating into the non italic text.

I use okular, Adobe reader on Linux and it is also appearing in the MS Windows Adobe reader.

I'm seeing the same formatting errors after exporting this file on Karmic 9.10.

Package: openoffice.org-core 1:3.1.1-5ubuntu1

What version of OpenOffice.org does Fedora use? The 3.2 beta? I noticed that the first 3.2 RC (release candidate) was released on 21 December 2009.

Do you still see this problem on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid)? I can't seem to reproduce it on the new version.
