I have OOo 3.0.1, apparently the "PPA" version, installed on Ubuntu 8.10. I have a 69 page document. When I do Page Preview, the data looks ok. When I print from that, the output also looks ok, but when I looked closer, I realized that every few pages the output got out of sync with the Page Preview data, such that at the end of the printout, the last page had 14 lines of text, whereas the Page Preview display only showed the last 8 lines on the last page.
I can attach three artifacts for this issue:
* My 69-page document
* A screenshot of Page Preview of the first two pages
* Scanner images of the first two printout pages
If you examine the Page Preview image, you'll see that the heading "Dynamic Properties" starts the second page. In the scanner images, you'll see that the second page begins with a line of text, and then the heading.
This is just the first example, as the document goes on, this happens in several places, although not on every page. By the end of the 69 pages, it's about 6 lines off.
The connected printer is a "HP LaserJet P3005 Postscript".
