Hello and thank you for reading.
Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS / Libreoffice 4.2.7.2 420m0(Build:2)
I am attempting to convert landscape documents generated by the MS Office suite into PDF for further processing. Here is a screenshot of the document open in MS Office:
And here is a screenshot of it open in libreoffice:
Notice that the bottom is cut off due to the margins (which are allegedly the same as the Office margins)
When I attempt to convert to PDF using the libreoffice --headless --convert-to pdf
command, I get the following:
My questions are as follows:
- Are there any options, potentially undocumented, to resolve this issue with landscape documents?
- Is there any way to pass options to the PDF export to allow bleeding into the margins?
- Is this a bug in Libreoffice?
I’ve uploaded the test file which you can attempt to reproduce locally here:
