Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 82055
Partial print when "convert color to gray" is checked in General Printing Options
Last modified: 2013-07-30 02:15:43 UTC
I just installed Openoffice 2.3 in french on a computer. When i started to print a page containing both text and a calc sheet embeded into, i get a partial print only. But on screen and on preview my page is complete. I found that unchecking the option "convert colors to gray" causes this behaviour.
Created attachment 48579 [details] writer doc with embeded sheet

Hasan, please confirm
I'd like see your print result. Please provide it also, if possible as ps file. Thanks. What about, when you export it to PDF?
Created attachment 48670 [details] pdf export when convert color to gray is checked
Created attachment 48671 [details] scan of printed writer file when convert colors to gray is checked
Created attachment 48672 [details] scan of printed writer file when convert colors to gray is unchecked
i added three files as attachement. I'm sorry my scanner doesn't produced ps files. Exporting to pdf gives a very good result, the same result as printing without color convertion to gray. I needed this option checked to force users of my office to print in gray mode by default. A this moment, i found a mean of doing that but if a printer don't give this option, it may be usefull for others users.
i added three files in this issue as you asked
HI->FME: The one and only bad result I reproduced was with the microsoft xps viewer.
fme->hi: The option the submitter mentions is buried in Tools - Options - Print. I can reproduce this issue with the MS Office Document Image Viewer 'Printer'. However, the bug also occurs when pasting the OLE object to Impress. So this is not a Writer specific issue.
HI->PL: Please take over. Thanks.
