Here's a test with three letters A, B, and C.
All characters are bright red.

A is underlined with the underline color as "automatic".

B is overlined with the overline color as "automatic".

C is overliined with the overline color as "bright red".

In Write, all characters and lining are red.

In pdf, the B has a black overline.

Example files are attached. I suspect the pdf writer
does not properly handle lining color inheritance.

Scott Wills, the issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport . If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Hi Christopher, I do not understand the reproduce steps of this bug.

Is this bug still valid / reproducible with the latest LO release? Currently 4.2.3: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/

Please also try resetting your user profile and let us know if that helps: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile

Should this be still reproducible for you with the latest LO release please set this bug back to UNCONFIRMED. Should this issue be solved set it to WORKSFORME. In that case please attach a test file with which this can easily be reproduced. Thanks :)

Setting to NEEDINFO until more detail is provided.

If you don't understand the click-for-click reproduction steps provided in the Description, then you shouldn't toggle the Status of this bug.

>"Is this bug still valid / reproducible with the latest LO release? Currently 4.2.3: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/"

As the reproduction steps are trivial to follow, did you try this? Despite this, reproducible in:
Microsoft Windows Vista Business x86 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002

I don't ever modify my profile so that is silly to do here.

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice
(5.2.7 or 5.3.3 https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and
your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior

a short comment that includes your version of LibreOffice and Operating System

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not
appropriate in this case)

1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3)

http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

Here is a table with red borders. The following text has an overline. The colour of the overline in the pdf (not in the odt) follows the colour of the table borders, which can't really be the intended behaviour.
